MOBILEHOME PARK
In November 1987, Orange Tree Mobilehome Park converted to resident ownership. The
Agency assisted residents in purchasing their park with a $600,000 acquisition loan,
which was converted to loans for lower income residents to help them purchase spaces
they had been renting. At that time, 29 residents either did not wish to or could not afford
to purchase their mobilehome spaces. The Redevelopment Agency agreed to purchase
the remaining spaces after the newly formed homeowner's association was unable to
secure the financing to purchase them. The Redevelopment Low and Moderate Income
Housing Set-aside Fund was used to purchase the remaining spaces. Residents who did
not purchase their space remained as renters in the Park. It was also the Agency's intent
to sell these remaining spaces as new mobilehome buyers moved into the park, or to sell
the spaces to the current residents when they were in the position to buy.

item which the City Attorney's Office is currently researching. I am in the process of entering
into a contractual agreement, which began before I took this position with the CYRC Board, with
the High School Sweetwater District. So out of an abundance of caution, I am recusing myself

BACKGROUND
On February 20, 2007, a Design Review application was submitted for development of a
1.23-acre site located on the west side of Third Avenue, south of Palomar Street (see
Attachment 1). The proposal involves a three-building, 14,360 square foot retail/medical
complex for multi-tenant use. Pursuant to C.V.M.C. 2.55.080, the Chula Vista
Redevelopment Corporation has design review authority for all projects within designated
redevelopment areas. The project site is entirely within the Merged Chula Vista
Redevelopment Project Area and is therefore being presented to CVRC for review and
approval. No other discretionary actions are required for development of this site and no
Redevelopment Agency involvement (financing, agreements) is associated with the project.
REDEVELOPMENT FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed project will create an estimated increase in assessed valuation of
approximately $2,154,000 and the Agency will receive one percent, or $21,540, of this
increase as tax increment revenue annually. This one percent will be distributed as
follows: 20% of the $21,540 will go to the low and moderate income housing fund. The
remaining $17,232 net tax increment will be distributed as follows: 18% to the County of
San Diego; 7% to the Sweetwater Union High School District; 2% to Southwestern
Community College; 1 % to the San Diego County Office of Education; and 11 % to the
Chula Vista Elementary School District; leaving the Agency approximately 41 % of the 1 %
increase in assessed valuation available for redevelopment activities. These pass through
percentages are applicable to the Southwest Project area only. The estimated annual
amounts are shown below:

ENVIRONMENTAL
The proposed project has been reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) and it was determined that the proposed project qualifies for a Class
32 categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15332 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Thus
no further environmental review is necessary.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMEN DA TlONS
At its meetings of April 5 and June 7, 2007, the Redevelopment Advisory Committee (RAC)
reviewed and discussed the application for the proposed retail/medical office complex at
1310-1318 Third Avenue. At the initial meeting in April, the RAC expressed some
concerns with the proposed design and suggested minor changes, however, they felt that
the proposal was of high quality. On June 7, 2007 a redesigned project was presented to
the RAe. The RAC considered that their concerns had been addressed and that the
structures were well-suited for the site and a significant improvement to the area (see
Attachment 2, RAC Minutes, June 2007).
RECOMMEN DATION
Staff recommends that the Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation adopt a resolution
approving Design Review (DRC-07-33), subject to the conditions of Exhibit B attached to
the CVRC Resolution.
DISCUSSION
1. Site Location and Surrounding Uses
The 1.23-acre property consists of three parcels and is located on the west side of Third
Avenue, south of Palomar Street. The site is zoned CCP (Central Commercial with a
Precise Plan Modifier) and its General Plan designation is CR (Commercial Retail). The
site is currently occupied with three wooden commercial structures, which will be
demolished. The rear of the site is unpaved, unlandscaped and lacks adequate drainage.
Land uses adjacent to the project site include retail uses to the east, south, north and multi-
family residences to the west.

Staff Report - Item No. ~

2. Project Description
The proposed project consists of three single-story shell buildings, one on the north-east
corner of the property and two along the south property line of the combined three
parcels. Access to the site will be from Third Avenue via one single driveway between the
north and south buildings, replacing the three driveways currently in poor condition and
serving the site. The buildings will comprise a total of 14,360 square feet. The two
buildings along the south property line will be 3,755 square feet (closest to Third Avenue)
and 5,790 square feet towards the west side of the site. In the northeast corner of the site
the building is 4,815 square feet.
The parking lot will provide a total of 72 parking spaces, including three disabled parking
spaces, which is in accordance with the Chula Vista Municipal Code for this use. Other
site improvements will include landscaping and the construction of a number of on-site
retaining walls around the perimeter. These retaining walls range in height from four to
eight feet.
The three proposed buildings will be concrete block with a stucco and decorative stone
veneer finish and will be between twenty and twenty-five feet tall. Where visible, the roof
will be metal standing seam, with both curved and gabled pitches, in a dusty green shade.
Air conditioning units are planned to be roof mounted, and care has been taken to ensure
that the units will not be visible from either the street, neighboring properties or anywhere
on the site. There will be ample storefront units, all framed in dark bronze, and each entry
door will have either an integral overhang or a metal awning in colonial red.
The 24-foot wide two-way driveway entrance is framed by two buildings, a significant
landscape strip, and trees bordering the parking lot. Landscaping will be provided along
the frontage, as well as throughout the site.
3. Development Standards
The proposed retail and medical office uses are permitted in the CC-P zone and all
development standards of the CC-P zone have been met or exceeded. The project was
developed in accordance with the following criteria:

4. Analysis
The project was evaluated in accordance with the goals and objectives of the Chula Vista
General Plan (2005), the Zoning Ordinance and the City's Design Manual. While the
project site is within the Merged Redevelopment Project Area, the Amended and Restated
Redevelopment Plan (2004) for this Project Area defers to the City's General Plan and
Zoning Ordinance for land use authority. As described above, the proposed project is
consistent with the land use designation in the General Plan and the development
standards for the Central Commercial (CC) zone.
The guidelines for commercial development in the City's Design Manual are intended to:
Encourage developments which are unique and creative yet respect the
scale, proportion and basic character of their surroundings... (CVDM p. 111-1)
While quite uncharacteristic of other buildings in this part of Chula Vista, this proposed
development is nevertheless appropriate for its use while being particularly sensitive to the
scale of the residential development to the west. By maintaining single story structures
and dividing the buildings up into segments of a size reminiscent of residential
6--~
Staff Report - Item No. ~
Page 6
architecture, the overall project is compatible with its residential neighbors. Although it
differs in appearance from other commercial projects in that area, this development will
still be relatively harmonious with surrounding structures, while providing a standard to
which future neighborhood development should aspire.
Promote an attractive, inviting, imaginative and functional arrangement of
buildings and parking area, and a high quality of architectural and landscape
design which provides for proper commercial access, visibility and identity,
but which discourages standardized approaches to commercial site planning
and design. (CVDM p. 111-1)
The site design is inviting, with individual stores having good visibility and access, and
significant and varied entry features giving each store its unique identity. From Third
Avenue, the parking is mostly concealed by the structures and landscaping, which is a
positive feature and a departure from the standard approach to other, older commercial
development along Third Avenue.
There was discussion at both RAC meetings about the desire to have building entrances
directly from Third Avenue, however, because of Building Code concerns and the need to
provide variable slope in the landscaping between Third Avenue and Building B (furthest
south), that was not possible. It was, however, determined that cornice elements on the
parapets of both Buildings Band C would make the facades more significant.
The site plan is appropriate and functional, with clearly-identified access to each business,
as well as appealing pedestrian routes and distinctive landscape features to break up the
parking lot.
Placement of structures should consider the existing built context of
the commercial area, the location of incompatible land uses, the
location of major traffic generators, as well as an analysis of a site's
characteristics and particular influences. (CVDM p. 111-2)
The high quality architecture and landscape design provided for the complex makes a
significant improvement to a part of the City where many shopping centers are
standardized and devoid of character and appeal.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICTS
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the CYRC Board and has found no property
holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this
action.

4.b. Review No.2: Third Avenue Center, 1310 Third Avenue
Project Manager: Ann Pease
Summary of Project:
The applicant, Tony Zamir, submitted a design review application
(DRC-07-33) for a proposed retail and medical office complex on Third Avenue just
south of Palomar. The project proposes the construction of three one-story
buildings, providing a total of 14,360 square feet. Buildings A and B are on the
south side of the parcel and consist of 5,790 and 3,755 square feet respectively.
Building C, intended for medical office use, is planned for 4,815 square feet and is
in the northeast corner of the site.
Revisions in Response to RAC Review No. 1
Fire Department Access
. Inadequate room for Fire Department to maneuver in the parking lot. This
requirement has now been satisfied.
. The Fire Department is now requiring an additional fire hydrant. Additional Fire
hydrant has been added.
Walkway Design
. Suggested that the two walkways should be brought directly out to Third
Avenue and would function better. Suggestion could not be implemented. It
would require that the walkway come out at an angle and there is insufficient
room for the necessary 2% slope to access Third Avenue. Applicant looked at
another area to bring a walkway out to Third Avenue and it was not possible
either.
Storefronts
. Suggested that the storefronts should face Third Avenue. Due to slope issues
and separation issues on both sides of the site it was not possible to put the
storefronts facing Third Avenue, so they continue to face inside.
Elements between Building C and Building B
. Additional articulation was brought in to match the other building. Staff feels
that the two buildings are now very well matched at Third Avenue
Landscaping
. More landscaping was desired. The site is quite tight and so space is limited for
additional landscaping. The applicant did add in excess of 80 plant materials
over what had already been provided. Applicant's architect presented some
information about materials to be used in triangular planters in the front of the
building that absorb water but don't have a curb which could eliminate the
accumulation of trash.

APPLICATION APPENDIX A
Project Description & Justification
Project Name:
Third Avenue Center
Tony Zamir
Applicant Name:
Please fully describe the proposed project, any a~d all construction that may be accomplished as a result of approval of
this project, and the project's benefits to yourself, the property, the neighborhood, and the City of Chula vista. Include any
details necessary to adequately explain the scope and/or operation of the proposed project. You may include any
background information and supporting statements regarding the reasons for, or appropriateness of, the application. Use
an addendum sheet if necessary.
For all Conditional Use Permits or Variances, please address the required "findings" as listed in the Application Procedural
Guide.
The scope of this project is to develop a contemporary, stylish, and functional single story
retail center, with 14,360 square feet of lease space, to replace a deteriorating and unsightly
collection of three small, unrelated buildings, and mixed vehicular and open field use. The
existing single story buildings contain less than 3200 square feet of floor space. Paved parking is
currently limited to an area immediately adjacent to the street, accessed by three deteriorating
driveways. The rear portion of the site is unpaved, with no discernable landscaping, and
insufficient drainage.
The property is an existing commercial! retail site in the Southwest redevelopment area,
comprised of three parcels totaling 1.23 acres, and is zoned CCP. It is located on the west side of
Third Avenue and south of Palomar Street, immediately south of the small strip center which is at
the corner of Palomar and Third.
Proposed site improvements will begin with the demolition of the three small, unattractive,
wood frame buildings with clapboard siding and stucco, which are old and in poor condition, and
are poorly placed on the site. Three volunteer scrub palms which are less than 10' tall will be
removed. Proposed grading and site construction will include reducing the overall on-site slopes,
the installation of low perimeter retaining walls, and effective site drainage. The drainage system
will include a central concrete swale in the parking area, leading to a grassy swale in a
landscaped area, and an under-sidewalk drain with media filtration, prior to release through an
existing under-sidewalk storm drain.
The proposed retail center includes three single-story shell buildings which will
accommodate up to a total of sixteen retail! medical lease spaces. The stucco and ledge stone
exteriors with metal roofing and awnings, are expressed in an elegant palette of natural hues.

The three earth tone shades of stucco and the stonework set off the dusty green of the standing
seam roofing, the colonial red metal awnings, and the dark bronze storefront framing. Each of the
14' wide by 10' high storefront units with double entry doors has either an integral overhang or a
metal awning, for rain protection, shadowing, and building relief. The contemporary architectural
style, with its clean lines and upscale look, will coorqinate with ~he best of the surrounding
neighborhood, and transition well with future redevelopment.
Building A, in the southwest corner, is 150' x 38' overall, with 5790 sq. ft. divided into six
single lease spaces and one double. It features two awnings, and a central tower section with
curved standing seam roof and a steel eyebrow. Building B, in the southeast corner, is 100' x 38'
overall with 3,755 sq. ft. divided into 5 lease spaces. It features two awnings, a central tower
section with curved standing seam roof and a steel eyebrow, and a quad-gabled end tower with
standing seam roofing. Building C, on the north side across the driveway and parking from
Building B, is 81' x 60' overall, with 4,815 sq. ft. divided into 4 lease spaces. It features two
awnings and a quad-gabled corner tow,er with standing seam roofing, and presents two storefront
window sections to the street. The buildings will be served by a 10' x 25' loading zone and a 20' x
20' x 6' high concrete block gated trash enclosure, in a spice tan coordinating color to match the
buildings.
A 24' wide 2-way driveway off Third Avenue near the center of the frontage provides
access to a functional looped parking lot, with 72 self-park spaces 9' wide x 19' deep. One
accessible parking space is located near each building (one van-accessible), each with its loading
zone and ramp to the sidewalk. An attractive and infonmative pylon sign will be placed adjacent to
the driveway. Site lighting will be provided with pole lighting within the parking area.
The site will be fully landscaped, with appropriate irrigation system. Trees include olive
trees, southern live oaks, and Italian cypress. Open planted areas will have shrubs including
photinia and coast rosemary, with ground covers including marathon grass and sageleaf rockrose.
Building walls and retaining walls will have plantings of trumpet vine and star jasmine to soften the
site.
A six-foot section of the property along the entire frontage will be dedicated to the City of
Chula Vista for an extension of the existing street width, to replace the existing unsightly
condition. This will entail the demolition of the existing driveways and the installation of new curbs
and gutters and sidewalk, and the new 24' driveway and apron. Two water meters will be
relocated because of this dedication.
This extensive construction project clearly involves considerable expense on the part of
the owner, as well as the cooperation and agreement of the City and its agencies. The owner will
benefit from the increased revenue from additional leased spaces, as well as enjoying unqualified
pride of ownership. The neighborhood will benefit from the vastly more attractive appearance, the
improved traffic situation, and the availability of a variety of retail and medical venues. The City
will benefit from the increased tax revenue provided by the additional retail/medical businesses,
the improved traffic flow on Third Avenue, and the major improvement to the city's image by this
exciting upgrade of this highly visible property in the heart of the redevelopment area.

BACKGROUND
Olson Urban Housing, LLC (Applicant) has submitted applications requesting a zone
change, precise plan, conditional use permit, design review, and a tentative map for
development of a mixed-use project on a 4.89-acre site located at 765-795 Palomar,
between Industrial Boulevard and Frontage Road in Southwest Chula Yista (see
Attachments 1 and 2). The site has been vacant for several years and was used as a
temporary site for the sale of pumpki ns and Christmas trees.
The site plan proposes the construction of a mixed-use project consisting of 154 residential
units and 5,000 to 10,000 square feet of commercial space to be built in two phases. The
first phase represents the development of the 4-acre portion (Lot 1) of the site to be
developed with 104 residential units. The second phase located on the eastern-most
portion of the site (Lot 2) with an approximate area of 0.89 acres, is proposed to be
developed with the mixed-use residential/commercial element that would satisfy the
affordable housing obligation, pursuant to the Housing Element Balanced Communities
("Inclusionary Housing") Policy. This phase of the project includes a podium building
structure with 5,000 to 1 0,000 square feet of commercial space on the first floor, 50
residential units on the upper floors, and associated parking spaces on the first floor and
one subterranean level.
The Bayvista Walk project requires a rezone of the site to provide an implementing zone
for the 2005 General Plan. State law (Government Code 65854-65861) and Chula Yista
Municipal Code, beginning at Section 19.12.030, establishes the process for adopting
zone changes of property and requires that the Planning Commission hold a public
hearing on proposed rezoning actions and provide a written recommendation to the City
Council. In addition, Chula Yista Municipal Code (CYMC) Section 2.55.050 provides that
the Chula Yista Redevelopment Corporation (CYRC) assume the legislative functions of the
Planning Commission, such as rezoning, for projects located within the City's
redevelopment areas. CYMC 2.55.050 also provides that the CYRC assume review
authority for the administrative and quasi-judicial functions of the Planning Commission,
such as conditional use permits, design review permits, and tentative maps, for projects

located within redevelopment areas. The CVRC recommendation, as well as the Planning
Commission's recommendation, is then forwarded to the City Council for final
consideration and approval.
History & Public Outreach
Since receiving the first Bayvista Walk project application, in February 2005, the project
has been undergoing extensive analysis, public review and redesign, as follows.
. February 8, 2005 - Olson submits a project application to the City to develop 104
residential units with 5,000 square feet of local serving retail.
. October 6, 2005 - Olson and the City hold a neighborhood meeting to present the
project proposal. Notices were sent to all property owners within a 500 foot radius
of the project.
. January 2006 - Olson redesigns project to comply with newly adopted 2005
General Plan. The new project proposal includes 154 units and 8,244 square feet
of commercial space.
. January 9, 2006 - Olson presents their project, as a preliminary review, to the
Design Review Committee (ORC).
. January 2006 - Olson works with a ORC sub-committee on the layout and
architecture of the proposed project.
. September 28, 2006 -Olson and City hold a neighborhood meeting at Harborside
Elementary School meeting to present the revised project proposal. Notices were
sent to all property owners within a 500 foot radius of the project.
. October 2, 2006 - Olson presents project, after working with ORC subcommittee,
to entire ORC for preliminary review.
. May 3, 2007 - Olson presents project to the Redevelopment Advisory Committee
(RAC) for first review. Notices were sent to all property owners within a 500 foot
radius of the project, as well as an extensive list of community groups (including the
SWCVCA). The RAC provided extensive design comments, including providing
more of an urban gateway design and increasing on-site open space. No members
of the public provided comment to the RAe.
. July 25, 2007 - Olson presents project to the Southwest Civic Association for
public questions and comments.
. August 2, 2007 - Olson presents revised project to the second RAC review for a
recommendation. The RAC is supportive of the design changes made by the
developer in response to RAC 1 comments, and recommends by a 5-0-2 vote that

. August 9, 2007 - Olson presents project to the Chula Vista Redevelopment
Corporation (CVRC) for preliminary comments on design review. The CVRC Board
is generally supportive but does have some additional design-related comments.
The CVRC agenda is sent out to an extensive list of community groups and
individuals. No members of the public spoke (or even attended) regarding the
Bayvista project.
. July 26 - August 27, 2007 - Mitigated Negative Declaration released for 3O-day
public review period. Received comment letters from two parties.
As shown above, over the last 2 1/2 years, the project has been presented at nine (9)
public meetings to receive community and design input.
REDEVELOPMENT FISCAL IMPACT
The project, when complete and sold, will have an estimated value of approximately $60
million, which translates to approximately $600,000 in annual gross tax increment.
California Redevelopment law requires a Redevelopment Agency to direct a minimum of
20 percent of all gross tax increment revenues generated within its Project Areas to a
separate fund to be used exclusively for the preservation, improvement and expansion of
the low and moderate income housing supply within the community. The remaining net
tax increment is divided as "pass through" revenues to the County of San Diego,
Sweetwater Union High School District, the Chula Vista Elementary School and
Southwestern College, as determined in the Southwest Tax Increment Sharing Agreement.
All remaining general tax increment revenue is available for Chula Vista redevelopment
activities and public infrastructure improvements. A complete detail of the approximate
annual tax increment revenues is provided below.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Boards/Commissions Recommendations
The project site lies entirely within a designated redevelopment area and is therefore
subject to review by the Redevelopment Advisory Committee and subsequent
recommendation by the Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation. The project was
presented to the RAC for initial review, comment and public input on May 3, 2007, and a
revised project incorporating many of the RAClpublic comments was submitted for
subsequent review on August 2, 2007. At that time, the RAC recommended (5-0-2 vote)
that the revised project be forwarded to the CVRC for consideration and approval, with
further consideration of staff's recommendations regarding modifications to useable open
space. Attachment 4 includes the August 2,d RAC staff report addressing these
modifications, as well as a draft summary of the comments received from members of the
public and the RAe.
The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed rezone and precise plan application on
October 24, 2007. A verbal summary of the Planning Commission's action will be
provided.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation adopt a resolution
recommending that the City Council:
1) Adopt Mitigated Negative Declaration (15-05-012);
2) Approve a Zone Change (PCZ-07-01) of the 4.89 acre site from CT-P
(Commercial Thoroughfare Precise Plan) to CC-P (Central Commercial Precise
Plan) zone and establishing Precise Plan Modifying Standards which include
site specific standards for the front and side yard setback and open space;
3) Grant Conditional Use Permit (SUPS-07-01);
4) Approve Design Review (DRC-05-39); and
5) Approve Tentative Subdivision Map (PCS-07-01).
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed project was reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) and an Initial Study, 15-05-012, was prepared in accordance with
CEQA. Based upon results of the Initial Study, it was determined that the project could
result in effects on the environment. However, revisions to the project made by, or agreed
to, by the applicant would avoid the effects, or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly
L\~
Staff Report - Item No. 4

Page 6
no significant effects would occur. Therefore, Mitigated Negative Declaration 15-05-012
was prepared for the project (Attachment 3).
DISCUSSION
1. Site Location and Surrounding Uses
The subject property is located on the south side of Palomar Street between Frontage Road
and Industrial Boulevard. The site is located within the area designated by the 2005 General
Plan as the "Palomar Gateway District" with a land use designation of Transit Focus Area
(TFA). It is located close to the Interstate 5 (1-5) ramps and next to the Palomar Trolley
Station, one of the busiest entrances to the City and next to one of its most active commercial
enclaves. Existing uses, General Plan and Zoning designations of adjacent properties to the
subject site are as follows:
Existinl! Uses General Plan Designation Existinl! Zoninl!
Site Vacant Mixed Use - Transit Commercial
Focus Area Thoroughfare
North Residential and commercial Mixed Use - Transit R-3 (Multi-Family
uses Focus Area Residential)
East Palomar Trolley Station Mixed Use -Transit Focus 5-94
Area
South Trailer park, multi-family and High Density Residential R-2 P (one and two
single-familv residential units Family Residential)
West Hotel & Trailer park Mixed Use -Transit Focus C-T (Commercial
Area Thoroughfare)
The City recently received a SANDAG Transit Oriented Design (TOO) grant to provide $2.1
million for street and pedestrian improvements along Palomar Street, Industrial Boulevard
and at the Palomar trolley station. The improvements will include traffic calming features,
landscaping, and streetscape amenities to augment the TFA General Plan goals.
2. Project Description
The mixed-use project is proposed to be developed in two phases. The first phase represents
the development of the 4-acre portion (Lot 1) of the site to be developed with the 104-unit
residential project. The project consists of two and three-bedroom units that range from 1,150
to 1,550 square feet in area. Some of the units also have a den. Each of the residential units
contains a two-car garage; most of these garages (76) are proposed as tandem parking (10 ft.
wide x 40 ft. long) and will accommodate two cars. The remaining 28 units would have
standard two-car garages. The project also provides 27 visitor parallel parking spaces (not
required by development standards) located along the southern property line.
4--~
Staff Report - Item No. ~
October 25, 2007
Page 7
In addition, the project provides approximately 35,730 square feet of private and common
open space. Private open space (approximately 13,560 sq. ft.) is represented by private
decks, and balconies, while common open space (approximately 22,170 sq. ft.) is in the form
of courtyards and paseos that provide useable open space and pedestrian connections from
the site to Palomar Street Trolley Station, as well as access to the south, where a future
neighborhood park is envisioned by the 2005 General Plan. Access to the site is from
driveway entrances on Frontage Road and Industrial Boulevard, which connect to a private
driveway aisle that extends along the southern property line in an east-west direction. This
driveway also provides street access for Phase 2 of the project. There is no direct access into
the site from Palomar Street.
The second phase, located on the eastern-most portion of the site (Lot 2), with an
approximate area of 0.89 acres, is proposed to be developed with the mixed-use
residentiallcommercial element. This phase of the project would include the construction of a
podium building structure with 5,000 t010,000 square feet of commercial space on the first
floor, 50 residential units on the upper floors, and associated parking spaces on the first floor
and subterranean level.
Overall, the mixed-use project consists of 154 townhome units, up to 228 on-site parking
spaces on Lot 1, and approximately 35,730 square feet of usable open space (see Attachment
Sa, Site Plan). The residential buildings in Phase 1 contain a density of 26 du/ac. The
proposed density for Phase 2 would be 56.2 du/ac. Total proposed density for the combined
project is 32 du/ac. Overall, the site density is within the range of the General Plan mixed-
use designation and maximum permitted density for mixed-use projects under the proposed
Central Commercial zone (32 du/ac).
At this point, Phase 2 of the project is designed on a very conceptual basis because this phase
will not be built by Olson. As a condition of project approval, and as an in-lieu fulfillment of
their affordable housing obligation, Olson Urban Housing will convey the 0.89-acre Phase 2
site at no cost to the City of Chula Vista Redevelopment Agency. The Redevelopment
Agency in turn will solicit development proposals from other private developers and is
conditioned through the Conditional Use Permit to comply with various design parameters
and City regulations, including but not limited to:
. Mixed-use development at General Plan level densities to reach a minimum of 32
du/ac for the combined project (Phase 1 & 2);
. Significant architectural elements that continue to emphasize this site as a "Gateway"
to Southwest Chula Vista;
. Mixed-use component to meet all development standards and processes;

. Neighborhood serving commercial component to be conveniently located in relation
to the transit station and storefronts that promote pedestrian activity along Palomar
Street and Industrial Boulevard;
. Internal connection to Phase 1;
. Continuous pedestrian access to transit; and
. Integrated design elements with Phase 1; and
. Design review by the Redevelopment Advisory Committee and Chula Vista
Redevelopment Corporation.
In addition, the Agency will insure the affordable housing obligation of the project is met at
the time Phase 2 is constructed. This can be accomplished either through inclusion of 16
affordable units in the podium building in Phase 2, or at an alternative site within the
redevelopment project area, as long as the alternative location provides the same or greater
public benefit and construction is concurrent with that of Phase 2. Enforcement of this
condition is the responsibility of the Redevelopment Agency.
A concept building design and layout for Phase 2 has been provided for illustrative purposes
(Attachment Sa and 5b), to convey the locational importance of this site as a gateway and the
future detailed design expectations. Final development plans for Phase 2 will be prepared
and taken through the City's standard review process when a developer is on board.
3. land Use and Zoning
The items being presented for CVRC consideration and recommendation to the City Council
are:
. Rezone (PCZ-07-01) of the 4.89-acre site from the current CT-P (Commercial
Thoroughfare with Precise Plan) to CC-P (Central Commercial with Precise Plan) and
the Precise Plan Modifying Standards;
. Conditional use permit (pursuant to 19.36.030 and 19.58.205) to allow the proposed
mixed-use (commercial/residential) development within the CC-P Zone;
. Design review permit (DRC-05-039); and
. Tentative subdivision map for lot consolidation (PCS-07-01)
Pursuant to CVMC Section 2.55.050, the Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation will
review these required entitlements and provide a recommendation, along with the Planning
Commission's recommendation on the rezone and Precise Plan, to the City Council for final
consideration and approval.
As indicated in the previous table, the General Plan land use designation for the subject site is
Mixed Use -Transit Focus Area and the zoning designation is CT-P. The General Plan
4---1'
Staff Report - Item No. 4

contains a vision and a set of policies for the area, which envision the Palomar Gateway
District providing higher density mixed-use development near the trolley station, with less
dense residential development to the west and south of the station.
The project has been evaluated and complies with the relevant goals and policies of 2005
General Plan. The regulatory tools to implement the General Plan include the proposed
rezone to Central Commercial (CC) and associated Precise Plan. The CC zone is the only
existing zoning district currently available that allows mixed use development. In addition,
the site currently has a Precise Plan ("P) Modifying District designation which permits a
precise plan to be developed. The Precise Plan allows more urban development standards
necessary to implement the 2005 General Plan. The proposed Precise Plan Modifying
Standards include the reduction of the front building setback from the required 5 feet to a
range of 0.5 to 6 feet from the property line, exterior side yard from 25 feet to 15-50 feet, and
the reduction in the usable open space square footage from the required 46,720 square feet
to 35,730 square feet, as discussed in more detail below.
4. Development Standards
The mixed-use development has been evaluated using the Central Commercial (CC) zone
development standards, which allow mixed-use projects through the issuance of a
conditional use permit. Chula Yista Municipal Code 19.58.205 requires mixed-use
developments to comply with the R-3 standards for residential density (CYMC 19.28.070)
and open space (CYMC 19.28.90) as further described below.
The project also involves a request for modifications to certain development standards
through a precise plan. Specifically, the applicant is requesting (1) a reduction in the open
space requirements, and (2) a reduction in the required front yard and a portion of the
exterior side yard setback to facilitate the development of this project. Additionally, although
the project meets City parking standards in terms of the number of garage parking spaces
provided (two per unit), the majority of the garages (76) provide tandem parking (one space
behind the other) instead of side by side parking. This requires specific approval by the
CYRC, and will be further discussed in the Analysis section of this report. Below is a table
with information on the project and the required development standards, as well as the
proposed standards of the project.

Building Setback:
The building line map establishes building setbacks for many areas of the City and, where it
applies, it supercedes that development standard of the CC zone. For the project boundaries,
the building line map establishes setbacks for Palomar Street and Industrial Boulevard only.
Along both Palomar Street and Industrial Boulevard the building setback is 5 feet. The setback
for the buildings along Palomar Street are proposed to be 0.5 to 6 feet in order to provide
wider sidewalks (minimum 6.5 feet) and create a more urban interface of the building with
the sidewalk and street. This design promotes pedestrian activity and enhanced access to the
trolley station. Along Frontage Road, the exterior side yard setback of the CC zone is 25 feet.
The project's exterior side yard setback is proposed to vary from 15 feet to 50 feet. Additional
discussion is provided in the Precise Plan section of this report.
Open Space:
Residential projects are required to provide on-site open space for residents to enjoy. The
Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 19.28.090 requires the provision of 400 square feet of
usable open space for one and two-bedroom units, and 480 square feet for units with 3 or
more bedrooms. The open space may be provided in the form of common usable open
space areas, private patios, balconies, or common recreational facilities. In accordance with
the standards set forth by Section 19.28.090 and the proposed unit mix (40 one and two-
bedroom and 64 three-bedroom), the total usable open space requirement for the project
would be 46,720 square feet. The project's proposed usable open space is 35,730 square
feet. This represents a difference of 10,990 square feet of useable open space. The proposed
open space includes common exterior open space, paseos, decks and balconies.
5. Analysis
The project has been evaluated in accordance with the goals and objectives of the Chula Vista
2005 General Plan (see Attachment 6), the Zoning Ordinance and the Amended and Restated
Redevelopment Plan (2004). It is noted that the 2004 Redevelopment Plan refers to the
General Plan and Zoning Ordinance for land use guidance.
Rezone:
As indicated previously, the proposed project site is currently zoned CT-P, which is a
commercial zone that does not allow residential development. With the recent update of the
General Plan, the Montgomery Specific Plan was repealed and replaced with a new vision for
this area of the southwestern portion of the City. The General Plan Land Use and
Transportation (LUn Policy 43.4 and 43.5 for this area state that development projects:
A/'\ \
Staff Report - Item No.-L
October 25, 2007
Page 12
'Provide a mix of uses with a focus on retail and some office uses along Palomar
Street in the Mixed Use Transit Focus Area, with residential uses above and/or behind
the retail and offices uses.' and;
'Provide a mix of local-serving retail and office uses near the Palomar Trolley Station
and at the Gateways into the Palomar Gateway District.'
The CT-P zone does not allow the construction of mixed-use (commercial/residential)
projects, and is thus inconsistent with and does not implement the current General Plan
vision and policies. In order implement the General Plan, the CT-P zoning must be changed
to the CC-P zone, which allows mixed-use projects through the issuance of a conditional use
permit. For this area of the City, this is the only zoning tool currently available to implement
the 2005 General Plan mixed-use designation. The proposed CC zone will contribute to the
public convenience and general welfare by further assisting in the implementation of the
General Plan.
In relation to residential density within the area, LUT Policy 43.6 of the General Plan states:
'In the Palomar Gateway District, residential densities within the Mixed Use Transit
Focus Area designation are intended to have a district-wide gross density of 40
dwelling units per acre.'
The overall project proposes 154 units on 4.89 acres, which results in a density of 32
dwelling units per acre. This density is consistent with the City's General Plan policy for the
site and represents the maximum density permitted by the proposed CC zone. While this is
less than the goal of 40 du/ac for the entire Palomar Gateway District, it is equally important
to provide a mix of densities throughout the District, with higher densities adjacent to the
trolley station as proposed on Lot 2 (56 du/ac) and lower densities to the west and south of
the subject site (26 du/ac). It is anticipated that more dense projects will be developed in the
future that will bring the average density up to meet the goal for the overall District. The
proposed residential density would provide an urban, pedestrian-oriented project design that
would complement the Palomar Trolley Station and be compatible with the surrounding land
uses.
The General Plan provides further guidance on design and landscaping for the Palomar
Gateway through LUT Policy 43.11 and 43.12, stating:
'..the improvement of Palomar Street as a gateway to the City.'
'Provide for safe, effective, and aesthetic pedestrian crossings and improvements to
Palomar Street and Industrial Boulevard.'

The SANDAG Transit Oriented Development grant project would provide 5 feet of
landscaping along Palomar, with Cypress trees to create a long stately row on each side of the
street, and walkways lined with Myrtle hedges to create a comfortable separation zone from
busy traffic for pedestrians. The pedestrian walkways will be 5 feet of sidewalk provided
through the TOO grant with an additional 1.5 feet provided by the Bayvista Walk to provide
a total width of 6.5 feet of walkway, and a total parkway width (landscaping + walkway) of
11.5 feet. Bayvista Walk will further compliment the gateway grant project by incorporating
plant species proposed for the Palomar Street median into the project site, provide urban
architecture and a pedestrian oriented development, and dedicate an easement to the City at
the northwest corner of the project site for an entry monument. In addition, the podium
building will provide opportunity to incorporate a neighborhood serving commercial
component adjacent to the trolley station. These features will all contribute to a cohesive
gateway entrance to the Palomar Gateway District.
Overall, staff's review of the project and for the reasons stated herein, this project sets a
positive precedent for implementation of the new General Plan goals and objectives and for
the revital ization of the neighborhood.
CVMC 19.80 "Controlled Residential Development Ordinance" (aka Cummings Initiative):
In the late 1980's, a citizen initiative referred to as the "Cumming's Initiative" was passed by a
majority vote of the electorate and was incorporated as Chula Vista Municipal Code (CVMC)
Section 19.80 (Ord.2309 Initiative 1988). The Ordinance contains provisions that limit the
rezoning of a property. Section 19.80.070 (D) states that:
"Rezoning commercial or industrial property to a residential zone shall be
permitted only to the maximum residential density corresponding to the
potential traffic generation that was applicable prior to the rezoning to
residential. "
It should be noted that the proposed rezone is from commercial to commercial (CT-P to CC-
Pl. Nonetheless, since the CC-P zone allows residential development at an R-3 density, the
following analysis, as set forth in Section 19.80.070(0), provides a formula for comparing the
potential development under the CT-P zone and the proposed development.
For the proposed rezone, the comparison would be between the existing potential traffic
generation associated with the development under the existing CT-P zone and the
corresponding maximum residential density that could be permitted. Based on standard
traffic generation rates (SANDAG 2002 "Not So Brief Guide of Vehicular Traffic Generation
Rates for The San Diego Region"), commercial and office uses generate significantly greater
traffic than residential uses. For example, the existing 4.89 acre site (213,008 square feet)
zoned CT-P would have the potential to develop up to a 319,512 square foot building. This
b1-t~
Staff Report - Item No. ~
October 25, 2007
Page 14
is based on the CT-P zone's existing development standards which allow 50% lot coverage
(50% x 213,008 sq. ft. site = 106,504 sq. ft.) and up to a three story height limit (3 stories x
106,504 sq. ft. per floor). Using SANDAG's standard traffic generation rates for commercial
uses (40 trips 11,000 square feet), a total of 12,780 trips would be generated from a potential
commercial building of that size.
Based on the criteria in Section 19.80.070 (D) above, the maximum residential density could
not be more than the potential traffic generated by the commercial use (i.e. 12,780 trips). This
equates to up to 2,130 multi-family units (12,780 trips divided by 6 trips per multifamily
dwelling unit) on the 4.89 acre site, which would be 435 du/ac. Pursuant to the November
2005 HTraffic Impact StudyH prepared by Katz, Okitsu & Associates (KOA) this project has
potential to generate 1,944 trips with the combined residential and commercial components.
Because commercial and office uses generate significantly greater traffic than residential uses,
a zone change from commercial to a multi-family residential category could never result in
residential traffic generation greater than the corresponding potential traffic generation from a
commercial development. Therefore, as illustrated above, zone changes from commercial to
a commercial zone that allows residential development would not conflict with Section
19.80.070 (D) of the ordinance.
The project will be required to contribute its fair share towards the improvement of public
services and facilities through payment of the City's Development Impact Fees and other
conditions of approval. These include existing City Public Facilities Development Impact
Fees (PFDIF), park acquisition and development (PAD) fees, sewer, traffic signal fees, as well
as a future Western Transportation Development Impact Fee (WTDIF).
Parking:
As indicated above, the Zoning Ordinance parking standards are met by the proposed project
in terms of the number of garage parking spaces provided. Each residential unit has a two-car
garage. The majority of the garages provide tandem parking (one space behind the other)
instead of side by side parking. Of the 104 residential units, 76 have garages with tandem
parking. Each of the spaces, standard or tandem, would be assigned to an individual unit and
contained within an enclosed garage for the unit. CVMC 19.62.020 (E) indicates that tandem
parking shall not qualify as required parking unless specifically approved by the Planning
Commission. This review and approval authority has been delegated to the Chula Vista
Redevelopment Corporation pursuant to CVMC 2.55.050.
Staff recommends that the CVRC consider the proposed tandem parking as part of the
required parking. Staff believes that in this particular case tandem parking within a 10ft x 40
ft. garage serves the same purpose as side by side parking. A garage of 400 square feet of
space can still accommodate two vehicles and the two spaces would be available to the
residents of the assigned unit. Staff also believes that this parking situation takes on a lesser
~-\~

importance because the proposed project is so close to the trolley station and allows for a
more compact development at the densities envisioned by the General Plan. The proximity
to the trolley station offers residents an important public transit alternative to the private
automobile.
Precise Plan Standards:
The purpose of the Precise Plan modifying district ("P" modifier) is to allow diversification in
the spatial relationship of land uses, density, buildings, structures, landscaping and open
spaces, as well as design review of architecture and signs through the adoption of specific
conditions of approval for development of property in the City. Within the boundaries of the
P district, the location, height, size and setbacks of buildings or structures, open spaces, signs
and densities indicated on the precise plan must take precedence over the otherwise
appl icable regulations of the underlying zone.
Pursuant to CVMC 19.56.041, the "P" modifying district may be applied to areas within the
City when one or more circumstances are evident, including:
"The subject property, or the neighborhood or area in which the property is located, is
unique by virtue of topography, geological characteristics, access, configuration, traffic
circulation or some social or historic situation requiring special handling of the
development on a precise plan basis."
The project site already has the "P" modifying district established on it (i.e. CT-P zone).
However, since no actual criteria for implementation of the precise plan were previously
developed at the time of establishment of the "P" modifier on the 4.89-acre site, such
standards are now being requested in order to implement a precise plan. The applicant has
requested that the Precise Plan and Modifying Standards be applied to the project site to
allow reduction of the front building setback and usable open space. While the proposed
precise plan standards would deviate from the adopted Zoning Ordinance, the site design
would be compatible with surrounding land uses as described below.
Modified Standard for Building Setbacks
The subject property is unique by virtue of its location within the General Plan's Mixed-use
Transit Focus Area and next to the Palomar Trolley Station. The General Plan calls for
compact and high density developments with an urban and pedestrian orientation. The
Palomar Trolley Station offers a unique opportunity for the development of a truly pedestrian-
oriented development, which allows residents of the proposed development to walk to and
use the Trolley Station instead of depending on the private automobile for transportation.
Thus, the building should have an urban and pedestrian-oriented character.

As indicated previously, the required building setback on the building line map is 5 feet from
the property line. The proposed building structures fronting on Palomar Street have a setback
of 0.5 to 6 feet from the property line. The building setback along Palomar Street is
intentionally reduced to create a more urban edge or interface of the proposed building and
the sidewalk and Palomar Street. While the proposed setback would deviate from the Zoning
Ordinance, the reduction in the setback would afford the project a more urban and
pedestrian-oriented character by being closer to the sidewalk, as compared with a suburban
type of development with larger front setbacks. There are 32 units fronting along Palomar
Street designed with six-foot deep patios adjacent to the proposed 6.5 foot wide sidewalk.
This is designed to encourage pedestrian activity and provide direct access to the Trolley
Station. Furthermore it activates the street, which is a common design element found in urban
locations. Placing the front buildings closer to the sidewalk allows for a better balance
between open space and buildings on the lot. Larger open space areas as well as pedestrian
corridors can be provided between building structures while, at the same time, maintaining
the desired density of the project.
Along Frontage Road, the exterior side yard setback of the CC zone is 25 feet. The project's
exterior side yard setback is proposed to vary from 15 feet to 50 feet. A reduced side yard
setback is only proposed at the corner of Palomar Street and Frontage Road and then widens
up to 50 feet south along Frontage Road. The modified standard at the corner allows the
building to be more prominent at this entryway and makes more of a gateway statement than
would otherwise be possible using the more suburban standard of 25 feet.
Due to the orientation of existing development on adjacent properties, no negative impact is
anticipated as a result of the proposed setback modifications.
Modified Standard for Open Space
As indicated previously, the Chula Vista Municipal Code section 19.28.090 requires a total of
46,720 square feet of usable open space based on the project's proposed unit mix.. The
project's proposed open space is 35,730 square feet, which represents a difference of 10,990
square feet (24% reduction) of useable open space.
The open space provided by the proposed project consists of one large common area (5,800
square feet) in the northern section of the property, next to Palomar Street, that contains a
variety of elements including a tot lot, grassy area, barbeque pits and several arbors, and is
protected by a decorative wall along Palomar Street. Another common area (4,380 sq. ft.) is
located along Frontage Road and is made up of both grass and landscaped areas, which serve
for passive recreation. A third major common area is represented by a paseo that extends
along the center of the site, between the interior building structures, in a north-south
direction. This area offers a major pedestrian connection between the southern driveway, the
Li- \ ~

Page 17
large common area and Palomar Street. Another open space element that is part of the
proposed project is represented by decks and balconies at each of the residential unit.
Staff has been working with the applicant on a variety of ways to enhance the proposed open
space areas in order to make it more useable for the residents and reduce the open space
deficit to the maximum extent possible. Following is a list of enhancements that have been
incorporated into the plans and others that have been recommended by staff, as well as the
RAC:
. Design elements and features, such as benches and raised f10werbeds with seating
areas, to be part of the common areas located on Frontage Road and Palomar Street to
increase the usability of these open space areas.
. Paseos that run along the interior buildings and which provide appropriate useable
open space as well as serve as pedestrian connections to Palomar Street and the
Trolley Station
. Decks and balconies in each of the residential units that count toward the open space
requirements.
. Staff has discussed with and requested that the Applicant add rooftop patios with
sitting areas and urban landscape elements to some of the units to serve as a
recreation space. The addition of rooftop patios is an important element because it
contributes to reduce the open space deficit and also takes advantage of the San Diego
Bay views from the top of the building structures, giving credence to the name of the
project.
All of these improvements would maintain the desired density of the project, while increasing
the amount of high quality usable open space by incorporating urban landscape elements
and minimize the gap between the proposed open space and CYMC open space
requirements. While the project has incorporated the first three items, staff continues to
recommend the incorporation of private rooftop patios into some of the units to further
reduce the gap between the CYMC requirement and the final open space plan presented by
Olson. Rooftop patios could be incorporated into the end units of each of the eight nine-
plexes (located south of Palomar Street). This would achieve an addition of approximately
6,400 sq. ft. (16 units x 400 sq. ft.) of usable open space, bringing the gap to only 10% of the
required open space. The addition of rooftop patios has been included as a condition in the
design review/conditional use permit (Attachment 8).

Conditional Use Permit:
CVMC section 19.36.030 (0) allows mixed-use projects upon the issuance of a
conditional use permit subject to the following standards and guidelines (Section
19.58.205 of the CVMC). Following each of the items is a discussion of how the proposed
project meets each of these requirements.
A. The conditional use permit shall be subject to review and approval of the city
council following the recommendation of the planning commission.
The required conditional use permit is being presented to the CVRC for a
recommendation to the City Council as the final approving authority.
B. The commercial and residential components shall be planned and implemented
together.
The mixed-use (commercial/residential) component of the project to be built at the
corner portion of the site as part of Phase 2 of the project will be planned and
implemented in conjunction with Phase 1. As described previously, the Phase 2
property will be conveyed to the Redevelopment Agency by the applicant. The
Agency will subsequently insure that the project will be implemented in
accordance with City requirements.
c. The maximum allowable residential density will be governed by the provisions
of the R-3 zone based on the total project area, less any area devoted exclusively to
commercial use, including commercial parking and circulation areas. The
approved density may be significantly less than the maximum allowable density
depending on site specific factors, including the density and relationship of
surrounding residential areas, if any.
The two phases of the project as proposed will have an average density (Phase 1:
26 du/ac; and Phase 2: 56 du/ac) that is consistent with the maximum density
allowed by the R-3 zone, namely 32 du/ac.
D. Parking, access and circulation shall be largely independent for the commercial
and residential components of the project. Each use component shall provide off-
street parking in accordance with city standards.
While Phase 1 and Phase 2 will integrate design elements, parking, access and
circulation of the commercial component of Phase 2 will be largely independent.
Each phase will contain its own parking pursuant to the requirements of the Chula
Vista Municipal Code. As proposed, Phase 1 of the project contains a two-car
t\- 1 r

garage for each of the residential units, standard or tandem, plus 27 parking spaces
for visitors (7 to be built on Lot 2). The parking for Phase 2 will be contained in the
first two levels of the podium building (first and subterranean floor) with access
from the main driveway aisle off of Frontage Road or Industrial Boulevard. While
the design of the garage is at concept level only, separation of the commercial and
residential parking areas will be required to be maintained by keycard access.
E. The residential component shall meet the private and common open space
requirements of the R-3 zone.
Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 19.28.090 (R-3) requires the provision of 400
square feet of usable open space for 1 and 2-bedroom units, and 480 square feet for
units with 3 or more bedrooms. The total usable open space requirement for the
project would be 46,720 square feet, however, the project's proposed open space is
35,730 square feet, which represents a difference of 10,990 square feet reduction) of
useable open space.
In order to allow the open space as proposed, a Precise Plan Modifying Standard
for open space different from that established in the Zoning Ordinance is being
processed as part of this application and is subject to review and approval of the
City Council. The proposed Modifying Standard would allow the reduction in
open space with the condition that the proposed open space be enhanced in a
variety of ways (as outlined in the previous section of this report related to open
space) in order to increase the quality of the usable open space by incorporating
urban landscape elements for the residents, allow an attractive and functional
arrangement of buildings, and reduce the open space deficit to the maximum extent
possible.
F. The conditional use permit may include a restriction on commercial uses and/or
business hours in order to avoid conflicts with residential units.
The CUP will contain the following condition:
"Prior to leasing any retail space, the Developer of Phase 2 shall submit
written description for hours of operation for the tenants of the
retaillcommercial uses to the Director of Community Development for
review and approval. The hours of operation shall be such that there is no
conflict with the residential unitsH.
Necessary conditions and restrictions will be imposed on Phase 2 of the project
when concept plans are prepared and reviewed for compliance with City
requirements.

In addition to the previous standard requirements, the findings for the granting of a
conditional use permit outlined in section 19.14.080 must be made. These findings and
the supporting evidence are included in the draft CUP resolution.
Design Review:
The proposed project has been reviewed for consistency with the City of Chula Vista
Design Manual and Landscape Manual. The standards and guidelines of these manuals are
used to evaluate the site and building design. The proposed project is laid out on the site
on a grid pattern with buildings and internal driveways. Two buildings extend along
Palomar Street, while eight buildings are located perpendicular to Palomar and separated
by short driveways that connect to two long driveways that run parallel to Palomar Street
and provide easy access to all buildings and their garages. The grid pattern establishes a
balanced relationship between buildings, internal automobile and pedestrian accessways.
This layout encourages pedestrian activity and provides direct access from multiple points of
the development to Palomar Street and Trolley Station. Furthermore, it activates the street,
which makes this an urban pedestrian-oriented development. With the implementation of
the recommendations related to open space, the project would achieve an attractive and
functional arrangement of buildings and open spaces.
The building architecture is harmonious and consistent with the scale of the surrounding
neighborhood. The building structures provide important design elements along Palomar
Street, which provide visual interest and a truly urban character. The project's architecture
and unique design elements will make these buildings stand out and serve as a landmark
at this entrance into the City Chula Vista. The project represents a high quality
development, as mandated by the Design Manual.
Tentative Map:
An application for a Tentative Map was submitted for the project to consolidate the
existing four lots into two, consisting of 4 acres and .89 acres, and provide for the grading
and development of the site as shown on the site and grading plans. The proposed project
has been reviewed for consistency with the City of Chula Vista Subdivision Manual and
the City has included the necessary conditions that must be satisfied prior to issuance of a
Final Map. The conditions are described in detail in Attachment 9.

Prepared by: Benjamin Guerrero, Senior Planner
A. Proiect Setting
The project site consists of a vacant 4.89 area located east of 1-5 and is bounded by Palomar
Street to the north, Industrial Boulevard to the east and Frontage Road to the west. The site is
in an urbanized area in the southwestern portion of the City of Chula Vista (See Figure 2 -
Aerial Map). Topography across the site is relatively flat and the property is devoid of
vegetation. The site is surrounded by residential and commercial development as follows:
North: Commercial, Multi-Family residences, Single Family residences
East: Palomar Trolley Station
South: Single-Family residences
West: Palomar Inn, Trailer Park
B. Proiect Descriotion
The project proposes to develop in two phases a mixed-use multi-family residential
development and approximately 5,000 to 10,000 square feet of commercial retail space on a
4.89-acre site (See Figure 3). LotJPhase I would consist of 104 residential townhomes on
four acres housed in ten separate structures. The townhomes are proposed as three-story
structures with 2-car garages. LotJPhase 2 would be a mixed-use podium building consisting
of 5,000 to 10,000 square feet of commercial retail area on the fIrst floor with the remaining
second through fIfth floors consisting of 50 residential units. The City required parking for
the mixed-use podium would be provided in a subterranean garage. The project will require
City approval of the following applications: a zone change from existing CT-P
(Thoroughfare Commercial Precise Plan) to CCD-P Zone (Central Commercial
DistrictJPrecise Plan); a conditional use permit (CUP) approval to allow residential
development in the R-3 zone; a Precise Plan approval; and a tentative subdivision map
approval.

C. Compliance with Zoning and Plans
The existing zoning of the project sites is CT-P (Thoroughfare Commercial Precise Plan).
The applicant proposes a change of zone from the existing CT-P (Thoroughfare Commercial
Precise Plan) to CCD-P Zone (Central Commercial DistrictJPrecise Plan). The General Plan
designation is Transit Focus Area (TFA). The proposed project will be consistent with the
regulations of the CCD Zone and with the goals and policies of the General Plan designation
once approval of a conditional use permit and zone change is granted. A Precise Plan will
also be processed as part of the rezoning application in order to prepare specific development
standards for the proposed project.
Land Use Analysis
The project site is part of the Palomar Gateway District, and is designated by the 2005
General Plan as a Mixed-Use Transit Focus Area. General Plan Objective LUT 43 calls for
the establishment of a Mixed Use Area around the Palomar Trolley Station and provides a set
of detailed policies in terms of development uses, intensity, design and amenities for the
District.
In addition to the General Plan objective and policies, an urban design strategy, entitled
"Palomar Gateway TOO District Conceptual Development Strategy" was developed to
provide further direction for transit-oriented design. Combined, these two documents seek to
ensure goals of the District are met, such as: urban development with low- and high-rise
development, higher density, clustering residential and retail (mixed-use), affordable housing
opportunities, providing a "Gateway" entrance, and pedestrian connectivity to the trolley
station and future neighborhood park on Oxford Street.
Intensity/Height
The proposed project includes two phases of development. The first phase provides 104
residential condominiums proposed on Lot 1 at a density of 26 DUlAC in three-story
townhome building structures. The second phase (Lot 2) includes the construction of a
mixed-use, podium building with 5,000-10,000 square feet of street level retail uses and 50
residential units on floors two through five for a density of 56.2 DUlAC on the corner of
Industrial Boulevard and Palomar, closest to the trolley station.
Between Lots 1 and 2, the project provides a mix oflow- (3 stories) and mid-rise (5 stories)
buildings per LUT Section 43.8. In addition, the podium building provides street level retail
development with residential uses above and behind it for a combined density for Lots I and
2 of 31.5 DUlAC. While this is less than the goal of 40 DUlAC for the entire Palomar
Gateway District as mentioned in Section 43.6 of the LUT, it is equally important to provide
a mix of urban solutions in the District, with higher densities adjacent to the trolley station as
proposed on Lot 2. It is anticipated that more dense projects will be developed in the future
that will bring the average density up to meet the goal for the overall District.
The General Plan and urban design strategy also identifY objectives to provide affordable
housing close to the transit center and pedestrian connectivity to both the trolley station and
2
41'")5
future neighborhood park. As proposed, Lot 2 will be conveyed to the City for future
development of affordable and market rate housing. While the developer's inclusionary
requirement is 10% of the total project, or 16 units, this project will leverage additional
affordable units since projects with City participation have a higher inclusionary requirement
of 15% or 23 units. In addition, BayVista Walk residents will have access to the trolley
station to the northeast and future neighborhood park to the south through a system of
internal pedestrian walkways, a main pedestrian paseo, enhanced pavement features, and
direct access along Palomar Street for 32 units in Lot 1 with front doors adjacent to the
sidewalk.
Overall, the combined project provides consistency with goals and objectives of the General
Plan Palomar Gateway District
D. Public Comments
On May 6, 2005, a Notice of Initial Study was circulated to property owners within a 500-foot radius
of the project site. The public comment period ended on May 16, 2005. No comments were
received. The Notice of Availability was posted at the County Clerk's Office and circulated to
property owners on July 25, 2007. The public review period of the MND and related documents and
maps ended August 24, 2007. The City of Chula Vista received several e-mail correspondence
comments from one individual and one e-mail comment in support of the previous individual. City
response to these comments are found at the end of the MND document.
E. Identification of Environmental Effects
An Initial Study conducted by the City of Chula Vista (including an attached Environmental
Checklist form) determined that the proposed project would not have a significant environmental
effect because of mitigation measures incorporated into the project, and the preparation of an
Environmental Impact Report will not be required. This Mitigated Negative Declaration has been
prepared in accordance with Section 15070 ofthe State CEQA Guidelines.
Air Oualitv
An air quality impact analysis was prepared by EDA W, Inc. (August 2006) for the proposed project.
Following is a summary of the results and recommendations of this air quality report.
Short-Term Impacts
The proposed project will result in a minor increase in air pollutants during the construction phase of
the project. Fugitive dust would be created during grading and construction activities. Air quality
impacts resulting from construction-related operations are considered short-term in duration since
construction-related activities are temporary. Dust control measures required during construction
operations would be implemented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the County of San
Diego Air Pollution Control District (APCD) and the California Air Resources Board. Mitigation
measures contained in Section F below would mitigate short-term construction-related air quality
impacts to below a level of significance.
There is also a potential for exceeding the volatile organic compounds (VOC) thresholds. During the
construction phase, architectural coatings are applied that produce these emissions. Further
discussion of this is found below under the heading Construction in this Air Quality Section.
4- :t It
3
Mitigation measures contained in Section F below would mitigate short-term construction-related air
quality impacts to below a level of significance.
Long-Term Impacts
The project site is located within the San Diego Air Basin (SDAB). Based on the Traffic Impact
Study prepared by Katz, Okitsu & Associates (November 2005), the project would generate
approximately 1,750 new daily trips. The morning peak hour traffic resulting from the project would
be equivalent to 105 driveway trips and the evening peak hour would result in 166 driveway trips
being generated. The gross number of trips was reduced by ten percent because of the proximity and
access to the San Diego Trolley. Occupancy of the homes and opening of the businesses would be
completed in 2007.
The information provided in Table I shows the current South coast Air Quality Management District
(SCAQMD) CEQA significance thresholds. The City has traditionally used the significance
emissions thresholds of the SCAQMD, which is responsible for air quality in the urbanized areas of
Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, and Riverside counties. The air quality in the SCAQMD is
much worse than the San Diego Air Basin; therefore, the SCAQMD thresholds are very conservative
for the San Diego area.

As shown on Table 2 above, there is a potential for exceeding the volatile organic compounds (VOC)
threshold of 75 pounds per day. The principal source of these VOC emissions is derived from the
architectural coatings that are applied to the buildings. A reduction of architectural coatings
emissions of 50 percent is required to reduce the emissions to below the 75 pounds per day threshold.
This can be accomplished by the use of general flat and non-flat coatings that average 125 grams of
VOC per liter. If an average VOC content of 125 g/L cannot be achieved, then the time of
application should be extended accordingly. With these limitations and changes, the VOC
significance threshold would not be exceeded, as shown in Table 2.
Also shown in Table 2 above, during the grading and building phases in 2006 and the building phase
of 2007, there is a potential for exceeding the NOx threshold of 100 pounds per day. URBEMIS
provides mitigation measures to reduce emissions from heavy construction equipment, including the
required use of aqueous diesel fuel, and lean-NOx catalyst. With these requirements, the NOx
significance threshold would not be exceeded, as shown in Table 2. Also as shown in Table 2, the
use of these measures would reduce PMIO emissions as well.
Overations
The estimated operational emissions for this project are shown in Table 3 below. As shown on this
table, none of the CEQA significance thresholds would be exceeded during operation of the project.
The URBEMIS model was used to calculate the input and output data.

Paleontological
A paleontological record search and resource assessment was completed for the project site by Brian
F. Smith & Associates on May 2, 2005. The compiled data were used to assess paleontological
resource sensitivity issues in relation to proposed Project grading, construction, operation and
maintenance activities. The assessment was based both on known paleontological site within the
Project area, as well as extrapolated biostratigraphic information derived from rock units in adjacent
areas or areas of regional context which indicate the potential for a fossil resource to occur in
particular geologic unit. Even though there are no known significant fossil resources found at the
project site, the report identified the project site as forming part of an area considered by experts in
the field of paleontology as having a "high paleontological resource sensitivity". This rating would
require a paleontological monitoring and mitigation program. This means that the grading and
construction activities related to this project need to be monitored by a professional paleontologist.
Subsequently, if unique paleontological resources are discovered, all significant fossil material will
need to be collected, prepared, identified, and curated, and then placed into a state-designated
'f-J-. c(
5
scientific repository. Compliance with the mitigation measure contained below in Section F would
avoid significant impacts to paleontological resources.
HazardslHazardous Materials
Soil Contaminants
The County of San Diego, Department of Environmental Health (DEH), is the lead agency for
approval of a soil remediation plan to clean up project site soils contaminated with pesticide
residuals. Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessment Reports were prepared by SECOR
International Inc., on June and December of 2004 for the subject site. Based on the historical
research, the Phase I report determined that the project site was used for agricultural purposes in the
past. The report cited the potential for soil contamination due to the use of pesticides as part of past
agricultural operations.
SECOR subsequently prepared a Phase II subsurface soils investigation of the site on November 10,
2004. SECOR advanced 6 shallow soil borings across the eastern portion of the site. Three soil
samples identified quantities of pesticides above EP A Region 9 Preliminary Remediation Goals and
California hazardous waste levels for 4,4-DDT, 4,4 DDE (combined as DDM), and Toxaphene at
various locations in the eastern portion of the site. The lateral and vertical extent of the detected
pesticides was not defmed by this assessment. SECOR recommended that additional soil sampling be
conducted on-site. SECOR also recommended that a feasibility workplan be prepared in order to
determine how to best manage the residual pesticides on-site.
SECOR conducted further soil sampling and prepared a remediation workplan that was subsequently
reviewed and approved on August 22, 2006 by the County of San Diego Environmental Health Land
and Water Quality Division. The SECOR report identified the organo-chlorine pesticide impact to be
found near the surface of the present soils in the eastern portion of the project site. The remediation
workplan prepared by SECOR recommends that the soils delineated with pesticides be placed on-site
in locations which will be overlain by roads, parking areas, or structural foundations, thereby
reducing the risk of contact with future residents or users of the project site. The impacted soils will
be covered with at least three feet of soil containing pesticides below any site clean up level. A
human health risk assessment will be prepared prior to the issuance of a grading permit and will need
to accompany any proposed corrective grading or capping operation.
Once remediation-grading operations are completed, the environmental consultants will prepare a
site activities report that will discuss the remediation activities, analytical results and maps
delineating final location of impacted soils. The proposed soil remediation mitigation actions will
reduce any potential impact from contaminated soils to less than significant.
Hvdrology
A Hydrology and Hydraulic Study report was prepared by Lundstrom and Associates on August 23,
2006 and approved by the City's Engineering Department. The study evaluated storm runoff under
existing conditions and compared it to the existing conditions plus project conditions (50-yer events).
The report assessed any potential drainage impact that could be caused, or aggravated by project
development. The project proposes to add 3.9 acres of impervious area in the form of rooftops, and
streets.
~-?. "
6
The hydrology report indicates that two basins will convey the majority of the stormwater to existing
storm drain systems beneath Palomar Street and Industrial Boulevard. A hydraulic analysis done for
the 24-inch RCP beneath Palomar Street, demonstrates that the pipe has an existing capacity to
convey 22 cfs. The hydrology report indicates that a 50-yer runoff rate is 16.6 cfs, therefore there is
no adverse impact on the existing 24-inch RCP. A hydraulic analysis done for the l2-inch PVC
located beneath Industrial Boulevard shows that the pipe has an existing capacity to convey 2.5 cfs.
The proposed 50-year runoff rate is 2.6 cfs, therefore the existing l2-inch PVC will flow under
pressure. However, the hydraulic analysis shows that the condition satisfies the dry-lane requirement
since the headwater stays within the gutter and does not flow over the existing curb nor does it sheet
flow onto the street pavement. This condition would meet City approved standards according to City
Engineering staff and, therefore, would not result in any adverse impacts to public facilities or
surrounding properties.
Water Oualitv
The project site is vacant and has little to no impervious cover under this existing condition. The
project will add about 4 acres of impervious area to the project site. However, presently about 2.2
acres of off-site runoff impact the project site on the southerly boundary. Existing suburban
residential lots to the south generate this runoff. This runoff flows in a northerly direction through
the project site and is intercepted into an existing 24-inch RCP storm drainpipe that exists in Trenton
Avenue. The majority of the existing runoff generated from the site drains onto the adjacent Palomar
Street inlet. The runoff eventually discharges out into San Diego Bay located about 0.4 miles west of
the project site.
In order to properly manage water runoff from the proposed project, the project proposes to
incorporate the following management facilities and practices:
. Appropriate grading of pads to direct runoff away from structures on the site.
. Storm drain systems to direct on-site runoff to appropriate outfalls through a V orSentry
VS60 storm water treatment facility subject to approval by the City of Chula Vista.
. Directing roof runoff to landscaped areas before discharge to storm drains.
. Propose a vegetated swale with a sand filter in the southwest corner of the project site to treat
the runoff that is not directed to the VorSentry Unit, subject to approval by the City ofChula
Vista.
. All runoff from the project area shall be directed to, and pre-treated by, a Treatment Control
Bmp before discharge to public storm drainage systems.
Compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Permit,
Order No. R9-2007-01 regulations including the preparation of a Water Quality Technical Report
(WQTR), a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and a Monitoring Program Plan will be
required. The implementation of water quality Best Management Practices (BMPs) as described
above will be required in accordance with the NPDES General Permit and to the satisfaction of the
City Engineer. Based upon the implementation of standard engineering requirements and compliance
with requirements of the SWPPP and BMPs, water quality impacts would be reduced to a level
below significance.
Noise
Noise Consultant Davy & Associates, Inc., prepared an acoustical analysis (October 2005) for the
proposed project. The study identified the primary noise source generator as traffic noise from
Palomar Street. Additional noise generators are associated with traffic along Interstate 5 and the
4-~~
7
trolley transit station and the occasional freight train use of the rail lines located along the east side
of Industrial Avenue.
The City of Chula Vista employs the noise guideline levels that set the maximum noise level for
outdoor common useable areas found within a residential development as 65 CNEL. The City's
exterior noise standard for office buildings and commercial Iretail property is 70 CNEL.
Construction Noise
Pursuant to Section 17.24.050(J) of the Chula Vista Municipal Code, noisy construction work (unless
associated with emergency repairs or health and safety matters) is not permitted in residential zoning
districts between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. during weekdays and between 10:00 a.m. and
8:00 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. Project construction work is anticipated to occur between the hours
of7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. weekdays only. This provision of the Municipal Code would ensure that
surrounding residents would not be disturbed by construction related noise during the most sensitive
periods ofthe day.
Traffic Noise
The existing and projected noise impacts are associated with increased traffic volumes along Palomar
Street and Industrial Boulevard. Based on actual noise monitoring at the project site, the acoustical
report states that the predominant noise generator is traffic on Palomar Street to the north and
Industrial Boulevard to the east of the project site. The measured equivalent noise level (LEQ) for
the north building line was 67.1 dB and the calculated CNEL was 69.1 dB. The measured equivalent
noise level (LEQ) for the east building line was 63.6 dB and the calculated CNEL was 66.6 dB.
The traffic report prepared by Katz, Okitsu & Associates dated November 25, 2005 determined the
existing traffic volumes without the project as well as 2010 volumes with the project. These volumes
were used to calculate CNEL increases for the year 2010. Based on the projected increase in traffic
along Palomar Street the CNEL along the north building line would increase by 0.3 dB to 69.4 dB.
The traffic increase along Industrial Boulevard would cause the CNEL to increase by 1.4 dB for a
projected CNEL of 68.0 dB along the East building line. Based on the acoustical report, standard
construction practice consisting of the use of2X4 studs with R-II insulation, exterior stucco, interior
drywall, and standard glazing should provide a minimum A-weighted noise reduction of 20 dB. The
report concludes that if all north and east facing windows and glass doors in the first row of units
closest to Palomar Street and Industrial Boulevard are glazed with STC 29 glazing, the interior of the
buildings will be able to achieve a noise reduction of approximately 30 dB. Thus, the interior noise
levels will not exceed CNEL 45 dB.
The project proposes an approximate 7,076 square foot recreational open space area about 30 feet
south of Palomar Avenue. The area will contain a water feature as well as climbing boulders and
BBQ areas. The recreational area will be subject to a measured equivalent noise level (LEQ) of 67.1
and a calculated CNEL of 69.1 dB. Based on acoustical consultant recommendations, potential noise
impacts to the recreational area will be reduced to less than 65 dB by the placement of a five-foot
high wall adjacent to the northerly line of proposed recreational area. With the placement of this
wall, potential noise impacts to the recreational area would be reduced to less than significant.
San Diego Trolley Rail Line
The Acoustical Analysis prepared by Davy & Associates, noise measurements were taken at the east
building line during San Diego Trolley pass-bys. The results of these calculations are summarized in
Table I below:
li---- ~ 1

Table I
Calculated CNEL Noise Levels in dB For Train Pass-bvs at the East Buildinl! Line
Source CNEL
Grade Crossing Bells 61.4 dB
Air-horn 60.7
In addition to the Trolley operations, the rail lines are used by one nightly freight train. The noise
sources emanating from the San Diego Trolley lines were summed up in order to calculate the CNEL.
The results of this analysis are summarized in Table 2 below:
Table 2
Calculated Total CNEL Noise Levels in dB from the San Diego Trolley and Freight Train and

Freight Grade Crossing Air-Horn CNEL Industrial CNEL Total CNEL
CNEL Bell CNEL
63.3 dB 61.4 dB 60.7 dB 68.0 dB 70.4 dB
With the exterior CNEL value of 70.4 dB, the buildings must provide an A-Weighted noise reduction
of 25.4 dB to achieve an interior CNEL 45 value. Standard construction consisting of 2X4 studs
with R-ll insulation, exterior stucco, interior gypsum board and standard glazing provides a
minimum A-Weighted noise reduction of 20 dB. Glazing all east, north and south facing perimeter
windows and glass doors with a standard STC 29 glazing will result in a minimum noise reduction in
the interior of the units of 29 dB. The noise impacts from all sources will therefore be reduced to 45
CNEL within the interiors of the proposed units. Central air conditioning systems will need to be
provided so that windows do not have to be opened during warm days. With the implementation of
the construction materials and central air conditioning units, noise reduction measures impacts from
noise sources will be reduced to a level of insignificance.
Exterior Useable Open Space
The Noise report also analyzed the potential noise levels for the proposed exterior living areas
including first floor patios and balconies (if these were to be counted as useable open space). The
analysis assumed the use of 60-inch high solid walls at the front of the patios and balconies. A solid
wall of this height will break the line-of-sight between the roadway and the ear height of a standing
person. The solid wall can be glass, plexiglass, wood or stucco. Following are tables that calculate
the CNEL values in dB for the north and east facing patioslbalconies.

Based on this analysis, all exterior patio open spaces will comply with the requirements of the City of
Chula Vista subject to compliance with the use of 60-inch high solid walls for the patios and
balconies if these are included in the open space requirements.
Noise Impactfrom the 1-5 Freeway
Noise monitoring results indicate that the noise from the 1-5 freeway was estimated to be in the low
50 dBA range. A scaled section from the 1-5 Freeway to the site was prepared by Lundstrom &
Associates Engineering (See Noise Report, Davy & Associates). The diagram shows that the line of
sight (LOS) from the 1-5 Freeway to the top floor of the proposed building is broken by intervening
topography and existing buildings. No adverse impacts from Freeway noise are noted.
Traffic
To identifY potential traffic impacts associated with the development of the project, a traffic impact
study was prepared by Katz, Okitsu & Associates on September 2005. The traffic study projected
that the project will generate 1,944 daily driveway trips, with 117 trips occurring in the AM peak
hour and 185 trips occurring in the PM Peak hour, prior to applying trip rate reductions. Because the
project is a mixed-use development and is located nearby a transit station, a 10% daily and peak hour
transit/mixed-use reduction was applied to both the residential and commercial components.
Additionally, a 40% reduction was applied to the PM peak hour of the commercial component as
pass-by traffic (trips diverted from their primary route by less than one mile). With the reductions
applied, the final project driveway trips totaled 1,750, with 105 trips occurring in the AM peak hour
and 166 trips occurring in the PM peak hours.
The proposed project will take access from two driveways. The easterly project driveway, located on
Industrial Boulevard, will service both commercial and residential project traffic. The westerly-
located driveway, located on Frontage Road, will service residential traffic. An internal gate nearest
the Industrial Boulevard (see project site plan) is intended to separate commercial traffic from
residential traffic. The proposed project will provide the required number of parking spaces in
compliance with the City's zoning ordinance.
Short-Term Impacts (Year 0 to 4)
Based on the traffic impact study results, the intersections of Frontage Road & Palomar Street and
Walnut Avenue & Palomar Street presently operate at a deficient level of service "F". Since the
project trips comprise less than 5% of the total intersection entering volume, the intersection impacts
would be deemed as cumulative impacts. Therefore, the project shall contribute a fair share amount
towards improvements, to the satisfaction of the City Engineer.

Long-Term Imoacts (Horizon Year 2010)
Based on the traffic impact results, the intersections of Frontage Road and Walnut Avenue with
Palomar Street would operate a deficient level "F" under all conditions and for the Horizon Year
(2010). Since the project trips comprise less than 5% of the total intersection entering volume for
each of the intersections listed above, the intersection impacts would be deemed as cumulative
impacts. Therefore, the project shall contribute a fair share amount towards improvements, to the
satisfaction of the City Engineer.
Segment Imoacts
A GMOC analysis conducted by the City ofChula Vista Engineering Department determined that the
Palomar segment corresponding to the project area forms part of an interchange arterial segment
criteria for evaluating segment impacts does not apply here. What does apply is the use of long-term
criteria, which permits an LOS D as long as the intersections operate at acceptable levels. After
mitigation is implemented along the Frontage and Palomar Street intersection, all segments will
operate at acceptable levels.
1-5 South Corridor Studv
The Interstate 5 Freeway along with the 1-805 freeway is a principal north-south interregional
freeway for movement of people and goods. The 1-5 provides access to major employment centers as
well as to residential areas including the City of Chula Vista. The segment between 1-5 and Frontage
RoadlWalnut Avenue forms part of the 1-5 south corridor and falls under the jurisdiction of the
California Department of Transportation (CAL TRANS). A major study known as the "Interstates
805/1-5 South Corridor Study" was prepared by SANDAG on June 2005 in association with Caltrans
and other regional agencies and cities, including the City of Chula Vista. The corridor study sought
to identifY and assess transportation improvement options to enhance the mobility of inter-regional
and regional trips. Subsequent subregional studies are being undertaken by SANDAG in
conjunction with CAL TRANS that will focus on refining the systems-level infrastructure
improvements for highways, arterials, and transit in coordination with local land use and
development plans.
With the implementation of freeway transportation improvements and services more travel choices
will be available. An alternative proposed by the study would reduce overall freeway congestion and
consequently congestion along the on and off ramps by significant amounts. This alternative would
provide for a mix of transit, high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes and mixed-flow lanes in order to
achieve congestion relief and a shift in travel mode from drive alone to both carpool and, in
particular, transit.

Comments:
a) No significant scenic vistas or views open to the public exist through the site.
b) In accordance with the City's General Plan, Palomar Street is not designated a scenic roadway.
However, the General Plan lists Palomar Street between 1-5 and the trolley station as a Gateway. The
General Plan calls for appropriate special treatment including signage, streetscape improvements,
pedestrian path improvements, underground parking and landscape material improvement at these
segments to signify arrival and progression at an important City entry point. All of these treatments
consistent with the adopted City General Plan and ordinances are proposed along Palomar Street.
These project improvements would ensure that aesthetic impacts to the Palomar Street Gateway are
deemed less than significant.
c) The vacant project site is within an urbanized area and contains overgrown non-native vegetation and
exposed soils. The development of a planned mixed residential/commercial development would not
substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site or surrounding area.
d.) Proper architectural design would ensure compliance with Section 19.66.100 of the Chula Vista
Municipal Code. Exterior lighting would not be directed upward and would be designed and installed
with appropriate shielding if necessary, to ensure that light does not spill horizontally beyond the
limits of the development area onto adjacent roadways, and surrounding commercial or residential
uses.

Comments:
a,b,d) A cultural survey was conducted by Brian F. Smith and Associates (BFSA) on April 25, 2005.
Based on this survey no cultural resources were identified within the project area, and no previously
recorded sites are located within the project boundaries. Therefore, no cultural resources will be
impacted by the proposed construction, and no further archaeological investigations are recommended
for this project.
c) A paleontological record search and resource assessment has been completed by Brian F. Smith &
Associates on May 2, 2005. The report states that because of the high paleontolgical resource potential
of the Bay Point Formation and the "nearshore marine sandstone," paleontological monitoring of mass
grading, excavation, and utility trenching activities in areas so mapped should be required to mitigate
impacts to any undiscovered nonrenewable paleontological resources (i.e. fossils).
Mitigation: Paleontological monitoring of mass grading, excavation, and utility trenching activities in areas so

Comments:
a-e) The site has been previously graded and developed with single family residential units. There are
no known or suspected seismic hazards associated with the project site. The project site lies over
one mile west of the La Nacion Fault Zone (an inactive fault zone). The closest recently active
fault is the Rose Canyon Fault, located about 8 miles northwest ofthe site. The site is not located
within an Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zone. Therefore, project compliance with applicable
Uniform Building Code standards would adequately address any building safety/seismic concerns.
According to the City's Engineering Division, the project will require a grading permit. A
preliminary Geotechnical/Soils was prepared by GEOCON on July 13, 2004. The report states that
the development of the site will include remedial grading to address any presence of expansive
soils. The preparation and submittal of a final soils report will be required prior to the issuance of a
grading permit as a standard engineering requirement.
In order to prevent silt discharge during construction, the developer will required to comply with
best management practices in accordance with NPDES Order No. 2001-01. The appropriate
erosion control measures would be identified in conjunction with preparation of final grading plans
and would be monitored and implemented during construction by the Engineering Division.
Therefore, the potential for the discharge of silt into city drainage systems would be less than
significant.
Mitigation: No mitigation measures are required.

Comments:
a-d)A Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessment reports were prepared by SECOR on
December 6, 2004 for the project site. Historical research as part of the Phase I report identified the
eastern half of the project site as an area formerly dedicated to agricultural uses. The Phase I
recommended a shallow subsurface investigation to evaluate the presence of residual pesticides.
The Phase II carried out soil sampling activities that detected four samples with pesticides above
the State of California hazardous waste level of 1.0 mg/kg. Three of these samples were above the
U.S. EPA Region 9 preliminary remediation goals (pRGs) of 1.7 mg/kg. A remediation workplan
was subsequently prepared and submitted for review and approval by the City and County
Department of Environmental Health.
e-f)The project is not located within an airport land use plan or within two miles of an airport.
g) The project as proposed and based on its location would not interfere with an adopted emergency
response plan. No impacts are noted.
h) The project site is not adjacent to a wildlands area. No impacts related to significant risk of loss,
injury or death involving wildland fires are noted.
Miti!!ation: The applicant/developer shall comply with the procedures and methodologies delineated in the

Comments:
a) The project would not significantly induce population growth; therefore, no impacts to library facilities would
result. No adverse impact to the City's Library Threshold standards would occur as a result of the proposed
project.
b) No adverse impact to the City's Police threshold standards would occur as a result of the proposed project.
Police Department states that they can continue to provide service at current levels
c) According to the Fire Department, adequate fire protection and emergency medical services can continue to be
provided to the site. Although the Fire Department has indicated they will provide service to the project, the
project will contribute to the incremental increase in fire service demand throughout the City. This increased
demand on fire services will not result in a significant cumulative impact. No adverse impact to the City's Fire
threshold standards would occur as a result of the proposed project.
d) The surrounding street segments and intersections continue to operate in compliance with the City's Traffic
Threshold Standards at LOS "C" or better with the exception of the intersection of Frontage Road/Walnut Avenue
& Palomar Street, which operate at an LOS "F" during AM & PM peak hours with or without the project.
However, since the project trips comprise less than 5% of the total intersection entering volume, the intersection
and segment impacts would be deemed as cumulative impacts. In order to reduce this cumulative impact,
mitigation is required. See Mitigated Negative Declaration, Section F.
e) The project proposes residential development west ofl-805; this Threshold Standard is not applicable.
f) The applicant proposes new drainage facilities on the project site in order to properly convey stormwater from the
developed site to existing city drainage facilities. No adverse impacts to the City's storm drainage system or
City's Drainage Threshold standards will occur as a result of the proposed project
g) Based on the Sewer study prepared by Lundstrom & Associates on August 24, 2006, the Engineering Division
has determined that the existing sewer facilities are adequate to serve the proposed project. No new sewer
facilities are anticipated to be required and no adverse impacts to the City's Sewer Threshold standards will occur
as a result of the proposed project.
h) Pursuant to correspondence received from Sweetwater Authority, there is a lO-inch water main located on the
north side of Palomar Street, a l6-inch water main located on the east side of Industrial A venue, and a 6-inch
main on the east side of Frontage Road. Sweetwater Authority indicates that water service can be provided at the
required pressures once the owner enters into an agreement for water facility improvements. The existing
domestic water services and fire service that currently service the project site are adequate and will not need to be
altered. Project impacts to the Authority's storage, treatment, and transmission facilities would be less than
significant.

Public Comments and Staff Responses on the Bayvista Walk
MND 18-05-012
(This document provides a transcript of comments received.)
Theresa Acerro's 8/9/07 comment letter (Rec'd E-Mail copy on 8/15/07)
To Mayor Cox and members of the RDA, members of the CVRC, and David Garcia:
Having read the MND for Bayvista Walk and several of the technical reports Iformally
request that staff be directed to correct the obvious errors in the document and reissue
the MND.
Comment #1: The project description in the MND and all the technical reports is for the
previous project. The description in all the documents and the description and the
diagrams in the technical reports need to be updated to the currently proposed project.
Indeed the current project has 10 town homes less, but CEQUA (misspelling) clearly
requires an accurate project description. Also in the MND and the Air Quality report it
is stated (p.4 MND, etc.) that construction will start in September of 2006 and all
residential and retail will be completed and occupied by end of 2007. This is obviously
incorrect.
Response to Comment #1: Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15063 & 15071a brief
project description must be provided in the MND including a commonly used name for
the project, location of the project and the environmental setting. Details regarding the
reduction in Development Standards are included in the Precise Plan for the project and is
not a requirement of the MND project description.
The project description provided by the MND is correct and up to date. Technical reports
support the preparation of the MND. The Air Quality report and the Noise report were
subject to a third party review by City of Chula Vista environmental consultant RECON
using the new site plan design as the basis for their expert review. These reports were
deemed adequate for the proposed project with the exception that a recommendation for a
minimum five-foot solid wall be constructed along the northerly perimeter of the project
site for the purposes of adequately attenuating noise for a designated open space area.
The applicant's civil engineer (Lundstrom and Associates) prepared the drainage study,
water quality technical report, and sewer report based on the new project description and
site plan design. The project site has remained vacant with no significant change and
therefore the cultural report, paleontological report, geotech report, biological survey, and
the phase I and Phase II environmental site assessment reports were utilized as originally
prepared since the conditions and potential impacts that these reports evaluated would not
be affected by the proposed site plan design.
Comment #2: On page 6 of the MND it states, "A human health risk assessment will be
prepared prior to the issuance of a grading permit and will need to accompany any
proposed corrective grading or capping operation. " It is inappropriate that this HRA is
4--1'-

not included in the MND. The decision makers cannot certify this document without this
HRA assuring that the health risks from Hazards/Hazardous Materials have been
adequately analyzed and dealt with. (In this case from the pesticide contamination on the
site.)
Response to Comment #2: With the original proposal, the site was subject to the
preparation of a Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, and a workplan
that delineated the remediation of the pesticide contaminated soil. The technical reports
and soil remediation workplan were subject to review and approval by the San Diego
County Department of Environmental Health, Site Assessment and Mitigation Division.
The workplan prepared by Secor International, Inc (environmental consultants) was
approved by the County Department of Environmental Health on August 22, 2006.
Since that approval date by the County, the applicant submitted a new development site
plan. The new site plan layout was submitted to the County Department of
Environmental Health for their evaluation. Based on this subsequent evaluation, the
County Department of Environmental Health approved the workplan on August 15,2007
and made the following determinations:
. An estimated 2,892 cubic yards of impacted soil are found at the site
. The new site layout is sufficient to support the impacted soil relocation due to the
required grading for the site
. The concentrations of pesticides found at the site were compared to the EPA
Region 9 Preliminary Remediation Ooals (PROs). [NOTE: PROs are risk-based
concentrations of contaminants used to assist risk assessors in evaluating human
health risk.] Of the eighteen soil samples taken only four (4) showed being
slightly higher than the PRO.
. As a remediation solution and based on federal regulations, the applicant's
geotechnical engineer has recommended in the revised workplan, that soil over
the entire site be excavated and recompacted to varying depths below the ground
surface, and that the impacted soil be placed below the structure foundations with
a minimum of three feet of clean cover. Based on this recommendation, the
County DEH has determined that a human health risk assessment will not be
required.
The County Department of Environmental Health will be notified prior to startup of the
excavation/remediation activities for the site. The proposed development offers the
opportunity to clean up the environment by adequately remediating contaminated soils
from within an existing residential community.
Comment #3: The hydrology section of the MND concludes that the run-ofJfrom this site
will not adversely impact "the existing 24-inch RCP" in Palomar St., but does not deal
with the efJect upon the channel along the Salt Ponds into which this pipe empties or the
capacity of the pipe going under the freeway. Likewise it says that the street curb will
keep the flow going down Industrial from flooding project and street, but does not deal
with efJect upon natural channel between Ada and Dorothy into which this water will

flow, and which is already stressed or the capacity of the narrow pipe going under the
freeway there.
Response to Comment #3:
. 24-inch RCP crossing Palomar Street
The 24-inch RCP that cross Palomar Street, near Trenton Avenue, was constructed as
part of a Capital Improvements Project (CIP No. ST-922) for Palomar Street and it was
designed to convey a IO-year, 6-hour storm event.
The City of Chula Vista, in October and December of 2000, prepared two reports titled:
"Drainage Study for Palomar Street Improvements from Interstate 5 to Industrial
Boulevard" and "Supplement No.1 / Drainage Study for Palomar Street Improvements
from Interstate 5 to Industrial Boulevard" that analyzed the drainage patterns of Palomar
Street and the vicinity areas to size the storm drain system and other street improvements.
The site of the proposed Bay Vista Walk project was a part of the area of study of the CIP
No. ST-922. The "Drainage Study for Palomar Street Improvements from Interstate 5 to
Industrial Boulevard" assumed that the ultimate condition of the area under
consideration was going to be a combination of suburban and commercial land use; with
this rationale, the runoff coefficient "c" for the project site ranged from 0.70 to 0.90.
The 2000 drainage analysis determined that the runoff generated by the tributary area
discharging to Palomar Street, for a IO-year storm event, was going to be 20.04 cfs,
which required a 24-inch pipe to convey the flow.
The drainage study prepared by Lundstrom & Associates for the Bay Vista Walk Project
titled: "Preliminary Hydrology and Hydraulic Study Bayvista Walk", determined that the
flow generated by the IO-year storm event was 9.48 cfs. Comparing the flows calculated
by City staff in the 2000 drainage study for CIP No. ST-922, and the flows calculated by
Lundstrom & Associates for the Bay Vista Walk Project, we could conclude that the 24-
inch RCP storm drain crossing Palomar Street would not be impacted by the runoff
generated by the proposed Bay Vista Walk Project.
. Downstream Storm Drain System (Under Interstate 5 Freeway)
The City of ChuIa Vista, as part of the construction of the street improvements for the
Palomar Street, analyzed the capacity of the downstream storm drain system. The
analysis was presented in the report titled: "Supplement No. 1 Drainage Study for
Palomar Street Improvements for Interstate 5 to Industrial Boulevard", dated December
14,2000. The hydrology for the abovementioned study was based on the criteria stated
in Section 3-200 of the City of Chula Vista Subdivision Manual and the as-built plans for
Interstate 5 (Caltrans Contract No. 11-122404, sheet 47 of 437). Per Caltrans as-built
plans, there currently exist a trio 5' X 3" reinforced concrete box culvert (RCB) that
conveys the runoff associated with the proposed Palomar Street project across Interstate
5. It was determined that the overall capacity of the trio 5' X 3' RCB is approximately
A-l~
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 4 007
310 cfs, compared to the 176 cfs that the tributary basin (including the proposed Bay
Vista Walk Project) will generate. The results of the City's capacity analysis showed that
the trio 5' X 3' RCB is adequate to convey the associated runoff.
· Storm Drain Improvements Along Industrial Boulevard
The existing 12-inch PVC storm drain that crosses Industrial Boulevard at the
northeasterly side of the proposed Bay Vista Walk Project, was designed as part of the
CIP for the Palomar Street Improvements (CIP No. ST-922). In the "Drainage Study for
Palomar Street Improvements from Interstate 5 to Industrial Boulevard, it was
determined that the runoff that the tributary area will generate for the 10-year storm event
was 1.36 cfs. The drainage study prepared by Lundstrom & Associates for the Bay Vista
Walk Project titled: "Preliminary Hydrology and Hydraulic Study Bayvista Walk",
determined that the flow generated by the IO-year storm event tributary to the existing
12-inch PVC storm drain was 1.52 cfs. Comparing the results from the City's 2000
drainage study and Lundstrom & Associates' drainage report for the proposed project, we
could conclude that the existing 12" PVC storm drain that crosses Industrial Boulevard is
adequate to convey the associated runoff.
Comment #4: The trip generation figures were incorrectly calculated as 6 per du, which
on the SANDAG chart is for apartments. 8 is the figure commonly used for
condominiums/duplexes. Podium dwellings may be apartments, but at least 104 du are
town homes and should use 8 for calculation of ADT
Response to Comment #4: The traffic report counted the number of units on the site,
including those on the podium building, as 164 units (project is now 154 units). The site
itself is just over 5 acres. This equates to approximately 32 units/acre. In preparing
traffic reports, the City estimates traffic generation characteristics based on rates in the
SANDAG (Not So) Brief Guide of Vehicular Traffic Generation Ratesfor the San Diego
Region (April 2002). Trip generation rates are as follows:
Condominium (or any multi-family 6-20 DUlacre): 8 tripslDU
Apartment (or any multi-family units more than 6-20 DU/acre): 6 tripslDU
Based on the proposal, 6 trips per DU is an appropriate figure to use to determine trip
generation rates for this project.
Comment #5: Page 13 #13 Mitigation for traffic impacts is the exact same mitigation
already assigned to a Marsella Villas in January 2007. This mitigation was assigned for
impacts of 40 town homes and obviously is inadequate for 154. Also since it will be built
by the time this project starts construction some other mitigation needs to be found for
this project's impacts.
Response to Comment #5: Cumulative impacts are those impacts that are not
necessarily caused by one development alone - they are caused by overall growth of an
area. In areas where traffic related thresholds are close to being triggered, it is quite
possible for any development, no matter what size, to trigger a cumulative impact. In this
4-'6'
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 5 007
case, either the construction of Marsella Villas OR the construction of Bayvista Walk,
would trigger the impact at the intersection of Frontage and Palomar.
As a result, whichever project is built first, Marsella Villas or Bayvista Walk, will need to
mitigate the cumulative impact at the intersection of Frontage and Palomar. The fact that
the mitigation language is identical for both projects demonstrates consistency in the
assessment of project traffic impacts. On Page 23 of the Bayvista Walk traffic study,
traffic volumes expected from Marsella Villas was accounted for (at the time the report
was written, the project was not called Marsella Villas, it was called Bay View).
Additionally, the project at the southwest comer of Ada and Industrial was also
accounted for as well (see page 23 of Bayvista Traffic Report).
Comment #6: The Frontage entrance can not be considered as the primary entrance
since the median will prevent left turns in or out at Frontage and Palomar. This most
likely will only be used as an exit when going east or entrance when exiting freeway from
the south or coming from Bay Blvd. This will put the major traffic load onto Industrial.
The effect upon Industrial of the median has not been analyzed.
Response to Comment #6: Until the proposed phase II portion of this project is built,
the Frontage Road access will remain as the primary entrance and exit to the project site.
In addition, the Frontage Road entrance will remain as a primary entrance to the site (for
those vehicles traveling east on Palomar Street from Interstate 5). The intersections of
Industrial Boulevard & Ada Street and Industrial Boulevard & Palomar Street were
analyzed by the traffic study and found to operate at acceptable levels for both for the
short term and long term scenarios. No direct or cumulative traffic impacts were
identified by the traffic study that would adversely affect the level of service of the
aforementioned intersections. The City Traffic Section has further reviewed the proposed
Palomar Gateway Beautification improvements with respect to this project and found that
there are no direct or cumulative impacts that would adversely affect the level of service.
The traffic study prepared by Katz, Okitsu & Associates (KOA) clearly states that with
the proposed mitigation (whether a signalized intersection or construction of a partial
median closure) to alleviate peak hour traffic impacts to the intersection of Frontage
Road/Walnut Avenue & Palomar Street would improve the operational performance of
this intersection to an acceptable level of service, under all study scenarios (page 36 KOA
report November 2005). Pursuant to Tentative Map condition #25 the applicant will be
required to construct the partial median at the intersection of Frontage Road/Walnut
Avenue & Palomar Street.
Comment #7: The Traffic Report needs to be redone. Air Quality and Noise also need to
be redone because they are based upon this outdated Traffic Report. Even the updates
used the incorrect figures in the Traffic Report issued in November 2005.
Response to Comment #7: The Air Quality Report and Noise study were reviewed by a
third party consultant (RECON) and were found to be adequate with the one

Response to Comment #10: The City Traffic Section section did count the volume of
Palomar Street as part of the 2007 TMP Program. After the large difference in volume
between the traffic report and the 2007 count was pointed out, the City repeated the
volume count on Palomar Street. Our most recent count (conducted in August 2007)
resulted in a volume of 44,650 vehicles per day. The City also asked the traffic
consultant on the project to re-count the volume on Palomar. The consultant expects an
increase of approximately 3,950 - 4,500 trips over what was originally counted. Traffic
Engineering therefore feels the 56,963 was a flawed count (potentially created by a loose
tube or incorrect setting on the counter). The 3,600+ increase in trips (difference between
40,957 and 44,650) this creates along Palomar is approximately 8%, matches what the
~_ -r,
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 70f37
traffic consultant expects to see, and fits the City range of 1-4% per year of increased
trips on Chula Vista roadways.
Because of this 8% volume increase, the City has asked the traffic engineering consultant
for the project to send us a letter addressing what additional impacts, if any, are now
expected on Palomar and Industrial.
Comment #ii: (#4) Page 25 Existing plus Cumulative Projects Plus Peak Hour

and Palomar as C with the project, but the 2006 TMP Segment LOS without project or

and 2005:
The report is obviously dated and the data is questionable when compared with the city's
own data. it does conclude on page 38 that the mitigation suggested would not change
the F condition at all, which would make an MND inappropriate for the project since this
would be an unmitigated negative effect. All impacts must be mitigated to below
significance for an MND to be valid. it would also make the project in violation of
Cummings.

Response to Comment #11: The LOS F for the intersection of Frontage and Palomar
mentioned as an intersection LOS is inaccurate - it is not an intersection LOS, it is a
minor movement LOS. The LOS for the intersection is B, the LOS for the northbound
minor move is F. The City specifically report the left turn minor movement at
uncontrolled intersections to see impacts sooner or to a greater degree. The letter further
compares intersection LOS for Industrial and Palomar with segment LOS of Palomar, It
should also be noted that GMOC thresholds do not apply to this section of Palomar, as it
is an interchange segment, not a local roadway segment. Lastly, the portion regarding
page 38 discussing no change to the LOS F condition is incorrect. Page 38 actually
shows post mitigation levels of service in the B and C range. The proposed project
although very similar in description and design proposes less number of dwelling units
than the project that was analyzed by the traffic study. The traffic study prepared by
Katz, Okitsu & Associates (KOA) clearly states that with the proposed mitigation
(whether a signalized intersection or construction of a partial median closure) to alleviate
peak hour traffic impacts to the intersection of Frontage Road/Walnut Avenue & Palomar

Street would improve the operational performance of this intersection to an acceptable
level of service, under all study scenarios (page 36 KOA report November 2005). The
project would not result in unmitigated effects, therefore an MND is an appropriate
document to disclose the projects impacts.
Comment #12: (#8) The project clearly contributes to the city's violation of the
Cummings Initiative and growth management ordinances, since it will contribute to a
traffic condition that violates the threshold We are aware that the GMOC thresholds do
not include freeway interchanges, but Cummings does not make any distinction between
streets that involve freeway interchanges and others. 19.80.010: "c This intense
development has overloaded the capacity of the city streets and thoroughfares to move
traffic safely, efficiently, and has failed 10 meet traffic demands.. ." 19.80.020: ""ensuring
that the fUture traffic demands do not exceed the capacity of the streets.. ." The wording
clearly applies to all city streets. There is also the problem that the project is not paying
anything toward its negative impacts (no traffic fee, no mitigation?). This is out of
compliance with (19.80.030 A.) "If the existing major city streets and thoroughfares
(Palomar) do not have capacity to accommodate the proposed development without
substantially altering existing traffic patterns or overloading the existing street system,
then construction or widening of a major link or links in the major traffic network shall
be staged as necessary to ensure the quality of existing traffic flow is maintained"
Clearly Palomar needs to be widened to 6 lanes from Bay Blvd to Frontage at the very
least to correct this problem that has been exasperated by the three condo projects
already built and occupied on Ada since 2005. The volume/capacity standards for city
streets is being surpassed The city must enlarge the street to increase its capacity to
what existing traffic demands before new traffic can be added If the city can not now
afford to increase the capacity of the street, obviously it can not now afford this project.
This is what the purpose and intent of Cummings requires. It is the city's and the
developer's responsibility to pay their fair share as CALTWS informed the city on July
10,2006 in a letter specifically concerning the EIR for the UCSP, but in general
reminding the city of the two recent court cases that have found jurisdictions responsible
for cumulative effects upon regional facilities caused by approvals within that
jurisdiction.

Response to Comment #12: The GMOC 2007 Annual Report found that "All Citywide
signalized arterial segments are operating at level of service in compliance with threshold
standards.." with the exception of a portion of Heritage Road in the eastern portion of the
City.
In the late 1980's, a citizen initiative referred to as the "Cumming's Initiative" was
passed by a majority vote of the electorate and was incorporated as Chula Vista
Municipal Code (CVMe) Section 19.80 (Ord.2309 Initiative 1988). The Ordinance
contains provisions that limit the rezoning of a property. Section 19.80.070 (D) states
that:
1-',\
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 9 007
"Rezoning commercial or industrial property to a residential zone shall
be permitted only to the maximum residential density corresponding to
the potential traffic generation that was applicable prior to the rezoning
to residential."
It should be noted that the proposed rezone is from commercial to commercial (CT-P to
CC-P). Nonetheless, since the CC-P zone allows residential development at an R-3
density, the following analysis, as set forth in Section 19.80.070CD), provides a formula
for comparing the potential development under the CT-P zone and the proposed
development.
For the proposed rezone, the comparison would be between the existing potential traffic
generation associated with the development under the existing CT-P zone and the
corresponding maximum residential density that could be permitted. Based on standard
traffic generation rates (SANDAG 2002 ''Not So Brief Guide of Vehicular Traffic
Generation Rates for The San Diego Region"), commercial and office uses generate
significantly greater traffic than residential uses. For example, the existing 4.89 acre site
(213,008 square feet) zoned CT-P would have the potential to develop up to a 319,512
square foot building. This is based on the CT-P zone's existing development standards
which allow 50% lot coverage (50% x 213,008 sq. ft. site = 106,504 sq. ft.) and up to a
three story height limit (3 stories x 106,504 sq. ft. per floor). Using SANDAG's standard
traffic generation rates for commercial uses (40 trips 11,000 square feet), a total of 12,780
trips would be generated from a potential commercial building of that size.
Based on the criteria in Section 19.80.070 (D) above, the maximum residential density
could not be more than the potential traffic generated by the commercial use (i.e. 12,780
trips). This equates to up to 2,130 multi-family units (12,780 trips divided by 6 trips per
multifamily dwelling unit) on the 4.89 acre site, which would be 435 dulac. Pursuant to
the November 2005 "Traffic Impact Study" prepared by Katz, Okitsu & Associates
(KOA) this project has potential to generate 1,944 trips with the combined residential and
commercial components. Because commercial and office uses generate significantly
greater traffic than residential uses, a zone change from commercial to a multi-family
residential category could never result in residential traffic generation greater than the
corresponding potential traffic generation from a commercial development. Therefore, as
illustrated above, zone changes from commercial to a commercial zone that allows
residential development would not conflict with Section 19.80.070 (D) of the ordinance.
The project will be required to contribute its fair share towards the improvement of public
services and facilities through payment of the City's Development Impact Fees and other
conditions of approval. These include existing City Public Facilities Development
Impact Fees (PFDIF), park acquisition and development (PAD) fees, sewer, traffic signal
fees, as well as a future Western Transportation Development Impact Fee (WTDIF).

fails to provide a full and detailed description of the project. 15124. Project Description
Discussion: This section requires the EIR to describe the proposed project in a way that
will be meaningful to the public, to the other reviewing agencies, and to the decision-
makers. Although the statute contains no express requirement for an EIR to contain a
project description, the statutory points of analysis need to be supplemented with a
project description for the analysis to make sense. This section is a codification of the
ruling in County of Inyo v. City of Los Angeles, cited in the note. There the court noted
that an accurate description of the project has been required by case law interpreting the
National Environmental Policy Act. The state court of appeal declared that an accurate,
stable, finite project description is an essential element of an informative and legally
sufficient EIR under CEQA. Public Resources Code. This is an MND but similar
requirements should be expected for a full and complete project description.
Response to Comment #13: See Response to Comment #1.
Comment #14: Figure 3 appears to show a .J3-acre recreation area in the same spot as
the water quality BMP in the technical report. The decorative pavements that are meant
to provide a porous surface appear much smaller than in the water quality report.
Response to Comment #14: Pursuant to mitigation measures #5, #6 and #7 of the
Mitigated Negative Declaration, the project has been conditioned to comply with all
requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
regulations including the preparation and implementation of a Water Quality Technical
Report (WQTR) and a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). The applicant
/developer is required to implement water quality Best Management Practices (BMPs) as
approved by the City Engineer.
It is not clear if comment # 14 refers to the two bio-retention sand filters located near the
northerly boundary of the project, almost at the middle of the site. If this is the case, then
please note that those bio-retention sand filters were sized to capture the runoff generated
from the 2-year storm, or 85th percentile. According to the Treatment Control BMP
Information shown in the appendix of Lundstrom & Associates' WQTR for the proposed
Bay Vista Walk Project, BMP # 1 (Bio-retention Sand Filter # I) should have a filter bed
surface area of 229 sq ft, and BMP # 2 (Bio-retention Sand Filter # 2) should have a
filter bed surface area of 275 sq ft. The dimensions of the bio-retention sand filters
recommended by the WQTR will be implemented in the grading plans as a condition of
approval. The small areas required for the bio retention sand filters have been
incorporated into the design of the open space area.
Comment #15: The primary entry to the project cannot be on Frontage due to the
elimination of left turns caused by the median to be built as a condition of Marsella Villas
project.

Comment #16: On page one it is stated, "the city required parking for the mixed use
podium would be provided in a subterranean garage. " Figure 3 shows most of this lot
covered with parking. There is insufficient detail regarding this podium project for it to
be included in the MND. It must have its own environmental analysis in the fUture. The
Water Quality Technical Report also states that it must have its own water quality study.
Response to Comment #16: The application packet for the proposed project contains all
the basic information to adequately conduct the required environmental evaluation and
determinations for the entire project. Figure 3 of the MND is the proposed site plan for
the entire mixed use project. As a site plan, it only shows the surface layer of the concept
plans, which includes level one of the condominium project (Lot I) and the five-story
building on Lot 2. The packet submitted by the Applicant includes drawings in
schematic format for the rest of the floors of the corner building, including the
underground parking, the surface level (shown on Figure 3), and building levels two,
three, four and five. Pursuant to Conditional Use Permit condition #38, Phase 2/Lot 2 of
the project will be required to conform to various design guidelines and a design review
permit.
The MND analyzes the environmental impacts of the entire project site (Lots I and 2) for
154 residential units and 5,000 to 10,000 square feet of retail uses as detailed in the site
plan. The podium building in Lot 2 and its potential impacts to the environment have
been adequately analyzed by the MND through the preparation of many applicable
technical reports including cultural, paleontological, traffic, noise, biological, air quality,
phase I & II, sewer, drainage and hydrology and water quality technical assessment.
Comment #17: The description does not include the variances being requested, which is a
critical part of the problem with the effect of the project on aesthetics and community
character. On page 2 there is reference to 'future neighborhood park on Oxford. " Is a
new park planned or is this just another proof an old document was used?
Response to Comment #17: See Response to Comment #1 and #16. The project is not
requesting a variance. The site is designated as a "Precise Plan" (P) modifying district
and is proposing a precise plan as noted in the project description. Through the precise
plan, the project proposes a reduction in the amount of open space and a reduction in the
front yard building setback. A precise plan, which is a mechanism provided by the ChuIa
Vista Municipal Code (19.56.041) is used to allow diversification in the spatial relationship
of land uses, density, buildings, structures, landscaping and open spaces, as well as design
review of architecture and signs through the adoption of specific conditions of approval for
development of property in the city. Within the boundaries of the Precise Plan modifying
district, the location, height, size and setbacks of buildings or structures, open spaces, signs
and densities indicated on the precise plan must take precedence over the otherwise
applicable regulations of the underlying zone. The Precise Plan and the required findings
will be presented in the reports to the Planning Commission, Chula Vista Redevelopment
Lt-1.1-

Corporation and the City Council. The Precise Plan will be considered by these review
bodies and will be subject to their approval during the public meetings.
The referenced park on Oxford Street was recently built and is currently in operation. In
addition to the Oxford Park, the 2005 General Plan calls for the construction of a future
neighborhood park in the area bounded by Industrial Boulevard, Ada Street and Dorothy
Street. Policy LUT 43.14 states the following:
"Provide for the development of one Neighborhood Park within or near the
Palomar Gateway District. "
Comment #i8: An urban design strategy, entitled "Palomar Gateway TOD District
Conceptual Development Strategy" was developed for the entire Palomar Gateway
District with no input from the existing residents, no approval or input from any
commissions or the city council. This document is being used to justifY this project. This
is entirely inappropriate and inconsistent with practice anywhere else in the city of Chula
Vista. This is a neighborhood in the lowest income area of Chula Vista. Environmental
Justice requires that the residents be given the same opportunity to plan what is best for
their community as the rest of the residents in the city. instead the developer was made to
hire an outside planner who has in effect written a specific plan for an entire
neighborhood and now city staff is implementing it without any involvement of the
residents of the area. The General Plan was meant to be a general document giving
broad ideas for a large area, not specific design guidelines or parcel-by-parcel planning.
The existing zoning should stay in place until changes have been vetted with the
community and through all legally required processes. This has not been done in the
southwestern part of the city and the residents are suffering the consequences of this
piecemeal planning. This is clearly an environmental justice issue since such practices do
not occur in other areas of the city. The concept of a precise plan is only used
consistently in the southwest to circumvent the need for a community developed specific
plan. The planners choose to work with favored developers and ignore the community
and the negative effects upon the community of this type of planning. CA Government
code f 65040.12:
(e) For the purposes of this section, "environmental justice" means the fair treatment of people of all
races, cultures, and incomes with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and
enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies.
Response to Comment #18: See Response to Comment #17. In December 2005, after
several years of community input, the General Plan designation for the project site was
amended from Residential-Low Medium (3-6 dwelling units per acre) to Mixed-Use
Transit Focus Area, and the site included in the future Palomar Gateway District.
General Plan Objective LUT 43 calls for the establishment of a Mixed Use Transit Focus
Area around the Palomar Trolley Stations and provides a set of detailed policies in terms
of development uses, intensity, design and amenities for the District.
The "Palomar Gateway Transit Oriented Development District Conceptual Development
Strategy" was not used to justifY the project. The project has been evaluated for

consistency with the relevant goals and policies of the 2005 General Plan. In staff's
opinion, the Project sets a positive precedent for implementation of the new General Plan
goals and objectives and for the revitalization of the neighborhood.
Comment #19: This MND does not treat the residents of the Palomar Gateway or
southwest area fairly, since they were excluded from the planning of this project and
their input at the single public meeting held in 2005 or 2006 at Harborside School was
totally ignored as was the input given at the MAAC Project on June 25, 2007. The
existence of a plan conceptual or not is evidence of this unfair treatment and the
premeditated plan to exclude the community. Presentations on planning were given for
three months to the members of the SWCVCA at which consistently the existence of a
plan was denied and the community was assured they would be able to contribute to a
specific plan.
Response to Comment #19: In addition to the community outreach associated with the
General Plan Update, the following is a brief summary of the project specific public input
received to date.
The first application from Olson was submitted to the City for review on February 8,
2005 (Initial Study) and a subsequent application for Design Review was received on
April 22, 2005. Olson first presented the proposal to the public at a neighborhood
meeting on October 6, 2005. These applications called for the construction of 104
residential units and 5,000 square feet of commercial space. This application was
submitted at the time when the City was in the process of formulating its General Plan
Update, which was adopted in December 2005. In 2006, the project was significantly
modified in order to more closely conform with the updated General Plan Mixed-
Use/Transit Focus Area (TFA) land use designation. It then went through another round
of review by City staff and an informational presentation to the Design Review
Committee and Sub-Committee in January 2006.
The modified plan called for the construction of 154 units and 8,244 square feet of
commercial space, and the remaining required applications were submitted to the City on
September 8, 2006 for a zone change, conditional use permit and tentative map. The
modified proposal was presented at a neighborhood meeting at Harborside Elementary
School on September 28, 2006. In October 2006, the modified proposal was presented
for preliminary review to the Design Review Committee. However, at the end of 2006,
the Olson Company decided to withdraw that plan due to concerns about construction
costs and market conditions. In February 2007, Olson submitted yet another preliminary
site plan, which included the same number of residential units and commercial space but
provided a different product type and site arrangement.
As a result, staff considered the site plan as a new submittal and has thus required the
project to be subject to the new Redevelopment Advisory Committee (RAC) and Chula
Vista Redevelopment Corporation (CVRC) review and approval process. The purpose of
the RAC is to gather early public input through a community-based advisory board on

development applications, with emphasis on design and on conformity with adopted
plans, ordinances, and guidelines.
The project was presented to the RAC for an initial review on May 3, 2007 and
subsequent review on August 2, 2007. In addition, the applicant attended the July 25,
2007 Southwest Civic Association meeting, and the project was brought to the CVRC for
preliminary design review on August 9, 2007.
Comment #20: The result for the southwest community has been the burden of regional
traffic congestion, streets packed with cars due to inadequate parking, and a high
concentration of homeless individuals littering the streets and frightening community
members as well as overtaxed and inadequate irifrastructure.
Response to Comment #20: See Response to Comment #10, #18 and #19.
Comment #21: Indeed this project is near a trolley station, but this station is already on
the line with the highest volume of use in the county. There is already standing room only
on the cars during rush hours. Essentially there is no more room for increased rider ship
and the blue line needs extensive repairs: Black-and-Blue Line in need of makeover
Trolley passengers get rough ride on deteriorating north-south route By Steve Schmidt
STAFF WRITER UNION_TRIBUNE May 20, 2007 Because of excessive traffic on
Palomar anyone choosing to ride the trolley would probably drive over there rather than
walk. It is not likely that many if any of the residents of the town homes will regularly use
the trolley.
Response to Comment #21: Comment is noted.
Comment #22: Public Meetings - There is no mention of the public meeting at
Harborside in the MND, which was attended by close to 30 fairly vocal people as I
recall. It is mentioned that no one commented on the Initial Study, but people essentially
did not understand what the city was up to nor that they were expected to send in
comments. This was before the General Plan was adopted and before the community was
aware of the need to get involved If the Notice had been sent again when the developer
returned with a new plan there would have been comments. This is essentially another
attempt to disempower the community by ignoring the many barriers they face to
involvement.
Response to Comment #22: See Response to Comment #18 and #19.
Comment #23: The plans I saw in the folders at planning did not list the brand names of
the paints and other coverings that would be used Without this information it is
impossible for the public to know if indeed the VOC will be reduced below the threshold
or not. This information must be provided since there is a huge difference in VOC content
in architectural coatings. There needs to be a way of monitoring the length of time for
application. There is no timeline included, so the public has no means of verifYing these
statements.

Response to Comment #23: Mitigation measure #2 of the Mitigated Negative
Declaration requires the applicant/developer to demonstrate, that prior to the issuance of
any building permits, the selected architectural coatings, their application and timeline
used will not exceed 55 pounds per day ofVOC.
Comment #24: Traffic - Page 4 talks of long-term impacts using incorrect data. The trips
were calculated as 6 per unit when the correct figure for town homes is 8. Also 105
driveway trips for the morning is too low considering we are talking about 154 families
who must all have at least one employed member to be able to afford these homes. Most
will have two employed members-each driving separately. It is inappropriate to reduce
this by 10% since the trolley line is already at capacity. There is also the inaccurate
statement that homes and businesses would be completed in 2007. Using an outdated
traffic report from 11105 is not acceptable since the city's TMP shows an increase of
almost 15,000 cars per day on Palomar since then. This would significantly increase the
pollution as well.
Response to Comment #24: See Response to Comment # 4 and #10.
Mitigations
Comment #25: Air Quality - There is no mention of the mandatory AQIP. On 9122106
Olsen submitted a custom building program plan for the Green Star Building Efficiency
Program, using solar and exceeding Title 24 by 15%. What happened to this plan?
Considering that the city has increased its CO by 35% (because of residential
development) instead of reducing it to 1991 levels as called for by the Growth
Management Program, all residential developments should be required to start doing
their share to get these figures going down instead of steadily increasing. This is a
cumulative effect upon an area of non-compliance with a standard. What is Olson going
to do? This is not mentioned in the MND or the Air Quality Report.
Response to Comment #25: CVMC 19.09.050 outlines requirements for public facilities
finance plans, air quality improvement plans (AQIP), and water conservation plans
(WCP). While CVMC 19.09.110 exempts the developed areas of the City from the
submittal of a PFFP, AQIP or WCP, the City's implementation guidelines for AQIPs and
WCPs approved in 2003 require all projects greater than 50 units to submit a AQIP and
WCP. The AQIP and WCP are tied to the building or construction phase rather than the
environmental analysis process of the project and must be completed and approved prior
to the issuance of building permits and initiated in coordination with the approval of the
tentative map. The applicant has initially submitted the AQIP and WCP plan and will be
finalizing for approval prior to building permit issuance.
The applicant has indicated that they qualify for points with the EED Program
(Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) headed by the United States Green
Building Council based on the proposed type of development. The LEED ND
(Neighborhood Development) encourages infill development near transit. In order to
qualify, the following must be met:
4/15l.e
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 16 of37
. Infill (located in existing community not "sprawl")
. In close proximity to schools and existing "infrastructure"
. Transit Oriented (within Y. mile of transit stop)
o Reduced automobile dependence (fewer trips)
o Higher Density (more homes in less space=more efficient)
o Pedestrian connections throughout the development and to public street
o Contains an "affordable housing" element
In addition, the applicant will be incorporating the following environmentally conscious
design standards:
. High efficiency irrigation equipment
. Reduced planting areas with minimal turf
. Drought tolerant/water efficient plant choices
. Low "E" energy efficient glass
. Energy Star Appliances
. Extra Insulation
. More efficient water heaters (not tankless)
Comment #26: Hazards and Hazardous Materials - It is not stated in the MND but is
stated in DEH letter 8/15/07 that all neighbors have to be given written notice of grading
and potential hazard from contaminated dust before any grading starts. This notice must
be in English and in Spanish.
Response to Comment #26: See Response to Comment #2 and Mitigation Measure #4.
The County DEH letter states that excavation activities must follow the DEH approved
Community Health and Safety Plan prepared by the applicant's environmental consultant.
As part of the Community Health and Safety Program a public notification program will
include the preparation and distribution of notices to residences and businesses adjacent
to the site where work is being performed. Notices will also be posted around the
perimeter of the site for interested parties. During each step of the grading process,
including the soil removal and burial process, reasonable precautions and measures will
be taken to control dust from the site. This includes the use of frequent spraying of water
in order to control dust migration off of the site.

Comment #27: Hydrology - Appendix D of the Drainage study is supposed to give a
complete analysis of existing capacity and effects of project but essentially confines itself
to pipes in immediate vicinity. This is an incomplete analysis. 7.9 acres will drain
through node 100 and 400 under Palomar and Trenton. It is really not adequate to say
that this pipe once improved will be able to carry all storm runoff. This pipe eventually
must cross under the freeway through a rather undersized pipe and drain into a natural
channel that makes its way to the bay through a natural channel between salt ponds. This
channel is tidal and the combination of high tides and extreme storm events has not been
added to the calculation, nor is there an evaluation as to the size of the pipe going under
1-5, which obviously can not be altered and is the weakest point in the system since the
added permeable surface will increase the runoff according to the report.
It appears that nodes 200 and 300 (about an acre) will drain through a barely
large enough pipe that will likely cause water back up to the curb height (a possible
danger to increase traffic on Industrial) and be directed for some strange reason across
Industrial to a natural channel along trolley tracks that now drains through a pipe back
across Industrial into the natural channel between Ada and Dorothy that has significant
problems already. 1. Sanchez was allowed to build condos in the floodplain by building a
ten-foot wall on the north side of the channel. There are properties at the same level as
the channel on the south side. The pipe going under the freeway not only is small in
width, but the amount of trash in the channel would indicate a good chance of clogging
in the event of a storm event. This would obviously cause potential flooding of property
(homes) to the south. It would seem that this should be dealt with in this report and the
project should pay its share of improving the channel and keeping it clear of trash. This
area in the secret plan is dedicated open space park I believe that the property owners
on each side actually own it unless the city has an easement.
Response to Comment #27: The proposed site of the Bay Vista Walk project was
divided into four drainage basins for its study: Basin 100, Basin 200, Basin 300, and
Basin 400. The Basin 100 will drain into the existing 24" RCP storm drain that crosses
Palomar Street; it is estimated that the flow for the 100-year storm event is 13.1 cfs.
Basin 200 will drain to the existing 12" PVC storm drain that crosses Industrial
Boulevard and the I DO-year storm event flow is 2.0 cfs. The I DO-year event runoff of 2.4
cfs of Basin 300 will be conveyed through the curb and gutter along Industrial Boulevard.
The I DO-year storm event runoff of 1.0 cfs of Basin 400 will be conveyed through the
curb and gutter along Frontage Road.
Per the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), the proposed Bay Vista Walk Project is not
within the "Special Flood Hazard Area Inundated by 100-year Flood" and is not subject
to flooding.
The Lundstrom & Associates' drainage report analyzed the impacts of the nearby pipes
and determined that since the runoff generated by the proposed project was equal, or less
than the runoff assumed in the design of existing utilities, then no significant impact was
triggered downstream of the storm drain system.
. 24-inch RCP crossing Palomar Street
~q<f
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 18007
The 24-inch RCP that intersects Palomar Street, near Trenton Avenue, was constructed as
part of a Capital Improvements Project (CIP No. ST-922) for Palomar Street and it was
designed to convey a 10-year, 6-hour storm event.
The City of Chula Vista, in October and December of 2000, prepared two reports titled:
"Drainage Study for Palomar Street Improvements from Interstate 5 to Industrial
Boulevard" and "Supplement No.1 / Drainage Study for Palomar Street Improvements
from Interstate 5 to Industrial Boulevard" that analyzed the drainage patterns of Palomar
Street and the vicinity areas to size the storm drain system and other street improvements.
The site of the proposed Bay Vista Walk project was a part of the area of study of the CIP
No. ST-922. The "Drainage Study for Palomar Street Improvements from Interstate 5 to
Industrial Boulevard" assumed that the ultimate condition of the area under
consideration was going to be a combination of suburban and commercial land use; with
this rationale, the runoff coefficient "c" for the project site ranged from 0.70 to 0.90.
The 2000 drainage analysis determined that the runoff generated by the tributary area
discharging to Palomar Street, for a 10-year storm event, was going to be 20.04 cis,
which required a 24-inch pipe to convey the flow.
The drainage study prepared by Lundstrom & Associates for the Bay Vista Walk Project
titled: "Preliminary Hydrology and Hydraulic Study Bayvista Walk", determined that the
flow generated by the 10-year storm event was 9.48 cis. Comparing the flows calculated
by City staff in the 2000 drainage study for CIP No. ST-922, and the flows calculated by
Lundstrom & Associates for the Bay Vista Walk Project, we could conclude that the 24-
inch RCP storm drain crossing Palomar Street would not be impacted by the runoff
generated by the proposed Bay Vista Walk Project.
. Downstream Storm Drain System (Under Interstate 5 Freeway)
The City of Chula Vista, as part of the construction of the street improvements for the
Palomar Street, analyzed the capacity of the downstream storm drain system. The
analysis was presented in the report titled: "Supplement No. 1 Drainage Study for
Palomar Street Improvementsfor Interstate 5 to Industrial Boulevard", dated December
14, 2000. The hydrology for the abovementioned study was based on the criteria stated
in Section 3-200 of the City of Chula Vista Subdivision Manual and the as-built plans for
Interstate 5 (Caltrans Contract No. 11-122404, sheet 47 of 437). Per Caltrans as-built
plans, there currently exist a trio 5' X 3" reinforced concrete box culvert (RCB) that
conveys the runoff associated with the proposed Palomar Street project across Interstate
5. It was determined that the overall capacity of the trio 5' X 3' RCB is approximately
310 cfs, compared to the 176 cfs that the tributary basin (including the proposed Bay
Vista Walk Project) will generate. The results of the City's capacity analysis showed that
the trio 5' X 3' RCB is adequate to convey the associated runoff.

The existing 12-inch PVC storm drain that crosses Industrial Boulevard at the
northeasterly side of the proposed Bay Vista Walk Project, was designed as part of the
CIP for the Palomar Street Improvements (CIP No. ST-922). In the "Drainage Study for
Palomar Street Improvements from Interstate 5 to Industrial Boulevard, it was
determined that the runoff that the tributary area will generate for the 10-year storm event
was 1.36 cfs. The drainage study prepared by Lundstrom & Associates for the Bay Vista
Walk Project titled: "Preliminary Hydrology and Hydraulic Study Bayvista Walk",
determined that the flow generated by the 10-year storm event tributary to the existing
12-inch PVC storm drain was 1.52 cfs. Comparing the results from the City's 2000
drainage study and Lundstrom & Associates' drainage report for the proposed project, we
could conclude that the existing 12" PVC storm drain that crosses Industrial Boulevard is
adequate to convey the associated runoff.
Comment #28: There are problems with the Water Quality report. The bioretension is
only sized to be adequate for a two-year event. More rain will bypass the system entirely
and enter the storm drains untreated except by filters in the drains, which must be
maintained regularly by someone. There is an increase from. 4 I pre-development to . 79
post development. Why is this being allowed? The condos on Moss were required to
retain all their runoff in underground basins for filtration. In the east projects are now
also required to retain all their increase in runoff for slow release or infiltration. The
greater storm events will send an increased amount of runoff quickly into an already
challenged downstream system that this report does not even mention.
Response to Comment #28: The California Regional Water Quality Control Board
Sand Diego Region Order No. R9-2007-0001, NPDES No. CASOI08758, requires that
all Treatment Control BMP for a single Priority Development Project be collectively
sized to comply with the following numeric sizing criteria:
i. Volume-based treatment control BMPs shall be designed to mitigate
(infiltrate, filter, or treat) the volume of runoff produced from a 24-hour 85th
percentile storm event, as determined from the County of San Diego's 85th
Percentile Precipitation Isopluvial Map; or
11. Flow-based treatment control BMPs shall be designed to mitigate (infiltrate,
filter, or treat) either: a) the maximum flow rate of runoff produced from a
rainfall intensity of 0.2 inch of rainfall per hour, for each hour of a storm
event; or b) the maximum flow rate of runoff produced by the 85th percentile
hourly rainfall intensity (for each hour of a storm event), as determined from
the local historical rainfall record, multiplied by a factor of two.
The two bio-retention sand filters were sized following the first numeric sizing criteria
for a volume-based treatment control BMP.
Although the existing land use of the project site has a runoff coefficient of 0.41, the
existing storm drain pipes were sized with the assumption that this land will be eventually
developed to a mix of commercial and residential land use. For this reason,
when determining the runoff generated by the site to size the existing infrastructure, it

was assumed that the runoff coefficients were between 0.70 to 0.90 and therefore, the
existing storm drain system is adequate
In addition, the City, as mandated by the California Regional Water Quality Control
Board, required that this project implement Low Impact Development (LID) BMPs to
minimize directly connected impervious areas and promote infiltration.
Comment #29: There appear to be only 3 BMP planters or basins or porous decorative
stone areas. Considering the number of roads they should all be made of porous
substances or at least include some kind of biocells. There are only 3 sand-filled
percolation basins. This really seems quite inadequate especially since it is only designed
for a 2-year event.
Response to Comment #29: To the maximum extent possible, this project implemented
Low Impact Development (LID), Source-Control, and Treatment-Control Best
Management Practices that combined will treat the identified pollutants of concern.
Pursuant to Tentative Map condition #16 and Conditional Use Permit conditions #17 and
20, the following BMPs will be required for the project:
Low Impact Development (LID) BMPs
. Narrower residential streets
. Alternative pavers in the driveways
. Common-area efficient irrigation
. Runoff-minimizing landscape design
. Efficient landscape maintenance
Source-Control BMPs
. Storm drain stenciling and signage
. Material and trash storage area design
. On-lot treatment measures
. Homeowner outreach
. Lawn and gardening practices
. Water conservation
. Hazardous waste management
. Trash management
. Outreach for commercial activities
Treatment-Control BMPs
. Bio-retention sand filters
Comment #30: Noise - The occasional freight train is daily at 2 or 3AM and it blows its
air horn at every crossing. It can be heard starting in National City at 43rd until Palm
Ave. in San Diego the neighbors st:ry, especially when the east wind blows. This report
was prepared based upon the outdated traffic report of 11/05, which grossly
underestimates the traffic and therefore the noise. The 201 O-estimated traffic in the
traffic report is less than the actual count for 2007 and therefore invalid. It is foolish to

put people's patios on Palomar. There is nothing pleasant about listening to 56,000+
cars going by. This is not useable open space. These patios should be within the project
area not on a street with this high a traffic volume. Keeping windows closed and using
air conditioning in order to deal with the excessive noise is not a sustainable building
practice. Again there is inadequate information provided to allow the public to make a
valid judgment as to the environmental impacts of the project.

noise mitigation measures # 9, #10, #11 and #12 found in the Mitigated Negative
Declaration, will ensure that the project complies with the City of Chula Vista Noise
Standards. Noise from the occasional freight train was also evaluated by the Noise
report.
Comment #31: Actually the buildings should be backed away from the street perhaps
behind a wall and trees. The variance for setback is ridiculous and unhealthy for the
residents. This is not a relatively quite 2 or 4 lane street in a downtown. This is a
56,000+-vehicle 6 lane major thoroughfare. There are numerous semi trucks passing by
here to Wal-Mart, Office Depot, Food For Less, Target, Michaels, Costco, etc. Infact if
measurements were taken the air quality from this traffic mix might be as deadly as
within 500 feet of a freeway. There is nothing pleasant about being on this street. In fact
it might be dangerous to have sliding glass doors and patios, which can be easily broken
into facing a major street such as this. 60-inch high solid walls may reduce the noise but
they will also block breezes, sunlight, and views and can be jumped relatively easily.
Response to Comment #31: See Response to Comment #10. The proposed building
setback along Palomar (2 -3 feet) is intended to create a more urban edge between the
proposed building and the sidewalk and Palomar Street. While the proposed setback
would be modified from the standard in the Zoning Ordinance for the Central Commercial
(CC) Zone, the reduction in the setback would afford the project a more urban and
pedestrian-oriented character by being closer to the sidewalk, as compared with a
suburban type of development with larger front setbacks.
In addition to the urban and pedestrian orientation afforded by the projects interface with
Palomar Street, the SANDAG TOD grant project would provide 5 feet oflandscaping along
Palomar with Cypress trees to create a long stately row on each side of the street and aligning
the walkways with Myrtle hedges to create a comfortable separation zone from busy traffic
for pedestrians. The pedestrian walkways will be 5 feet of sidewalk provided through the
grant with an additional 1.5 to 6 feet (varies) provided by the Bayvista Walk in order to
provide wider sidewalks (minimum 6.5 feet).
Access to the Palomar trolley station would also be enhanced with thirty two (32) of the
units accessing directly onto Palomar Street and the remaining units provide a clear
pedestrian access and connections through the site to the trolley station.
Comment #32: Traffic- As already mentioned several times the traffic report is outdated
and inaccurate. The intersections of Walnut and Palomar and Frontage and Palomar are
4,-'11..
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 22 of37
already F and the rest of the street is D for more than 2 hours a day, and may change to
F when the traffic from this project is added Cummings clearly states that under
capacity roads need to be fixed before any new development takes place. (19.80.030 No
development without adequate public services and facilities. A. If the existing major city
streets and thoroughfares do not have the capacity to accommodate the proposed
development without substantially altering existing traffic patterns or overloading the
existing street system, then construction or widening of a major link or links in the major
traffic network shall be staged as necessary to ensure the quality of existing traffic flow is
maintained.)
Response to Comment #32: See Response to Comment #11 and #12. As analyzed, the
project has no direct or cumulative impacts that would adversely affect the level of
service at the intersections of Palomar Street and Frontage/Walnut. However, pursuant to
Tentative Map condition #24, the Applicant shall pay all applicable Western
Transportation Development Impact Fees (WTDIF) at the rates in effect at the time of
approval of the [mal map or building permit.
Comment #33: Since these intersections are already F and there apparently is no way to
improve them. The project needs to be delayed until such time as the volume/capacity of
the roads can be increased. Inaccurate information was given to the RAC by a city
employee who admitted to a citizen that he was wrong because he used the wrong
SANDAG budget information when he told the RAC 1-5 would be widened all the way to
the border and the bridge and off ramps causing the major problem here would be
widened He declined to correct himself in public, and Ann Hix's brushed it off as "There
is always inaccurate information given at these meetings." (This upset our citizen
because he thought people were inclined to assume staff told the truth.) This is simply not
acceptable. The report mentions a future alternative to relieve congestion. This
alternative in the likely SANDAG budget scenario will only go as far as J Street and
therefore have no effect upon Palomar. The bottom line is that increased density is not
appropriate here because of the current congestion that probably will continue to worsen
and there is no plan at any level of government to improve the situation.
Response to Comment #33: See Response to Comment #11. For impacts to the 1-5
freeway segments identified in the 2005 General Plan Update, Table 5.10-4, the 1-5
freeway will need to be widened to provide additional capacity, depending on the
segment, as shown on the most recent SANDAG Regional Transportation Plan. Since the
freeway system is developed and managed by Caltrans, the City has only limited ability
to affect the level of congestion on these roadways, as such, mitigation is not within the
authority of the City of Chula Vista sufficient to avoid the cumulative contribution to
traffic on this roadway and the impact remains significant, as previously concluded in the
General Plan EIR.
Comment #34: This is a clear Environmental Justice issue. This community and indeed
the entire southwest have been forced to endure an unequal share of the impacts of
regional traffic congestion. The intersection of Orange and 805 was widened to provide
some relief for the more affluent users in the east, but neither the city nor the county nor
4-~
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 23 007
the state have any plans to relieve the congestion here in the foreseeable future. At the
very least the fair thing to do is to limit the increased density to minimize the increased
congestion to the degree possible. The project is said to be a cumulative impact of 5%.
This is an unjust increase upon an already impacted community. The two paragraphs
under 1-5 South Corridor Study are misleading and do not reflect the recent report
presented to the public by SANDAG, which clearly indicated no possibility of a budget
being implemented that would relief congestion on Palomar Street.
Response to Comment #34: See Response to Comment #11 and #33. The Palomar
Street overpass and related intersections of the 1-5 off-ramps are within Caltrans right-of-
way and the City therefore relies on Caltrans for maintenance and any needed
improvements.
Comment #35: Cummings makes no distinction between freeways or surface streets. It
also emphasizes capacity. The city's own capacity studies clearly show Palomar is
already way over capacity. 5% more is not acceptable. Both the MND and the Traffic
report acknowledge that the intersection of Frontage and Palomar is and will continue to
be F. This is an unmitigatable negative condition that the project would cumulatively
make 5% worse. Unless the city wants to do an EIR and declare over-riding conditions,
which in itself is a violation of Cummings this project must be denied under CEQUA.
Response to Comment #35: See Response to Comment #1 1 and #12.
Comment #36: Mitigations - Air Quality: The mitigations are inadequate. There is no
AQIP, which is required by the city. There is no indication on the plans as to which
architectural coatings will be applied It is not adequate to say this will occur before a
building permit is issued. It must be part of the environmental document or the public's
right to know is not fulfilled
Response to Comment #36: See Response to Comment #22 and #25.
Comment #37: Hazards: This statement is out of date. The directions in the letter dated
8/15/07 must be adhered to.
Response to Comment #37: See Response to Comment # 2 and #26.
Comment #38: Hydrology/Water Quality:" Courts have held EIRs to be inadequate when
the mitigation measure "does no more than require a report be prepared and followed,
or allow approval by a county department without setting any standards."1 This is
substantially what this MND does when it refers water quality issues to the city's Storm
Water permit, which is not specific to this project. It is impossible for the public to be
assured of compliance with these plans without more specific information about BMP's
and a commitment to use Low Impact Development Techniques as recommended for all
projects by the RWQRB.

Response to Comment #38: All development projects are required to follow the City of
Chula Vista Subdivision Manual and comply with the California Regional Water Quality
Control Board Sand Diego Region Order No. R9-2007-0001, NPDES No. CASOI08758.
Please note that as part of approval of a Water Quality Technical Report, each project
must identify the pollutants of concern that will be generated by the land use, and
following the guidelines of the City's Storm Water Permit, implement Low Impact
Development (LID), Source-Control, and Treatment-Control Best Management Practices.
In addition, the project will be conditioned to comply with all grading permit
requirements, pursuant to mitigation measures #5, # 6 and #7.
Comment #39: The Hydrology report states that their bioretension facilities are only
designed for 2-year storms and greater events will bypass these units. The lack of open
space in the project for which a variance is being asked precludes the use of vegetated
swales. Therefore the water quality issues have not been fully mitigated either.
Response to Comment #39: Please see response to Comment #14, #28 and #29.
Comment #40: Noise: The use of air conditioning causes a negative impact on energy
resources, which the general plan EIR showed to be strained and potentially inadequate
for the development, contemplated for buildout. The mitigations suggested in the noise
study may be inadequate, because they are based upon an outdated traffic study and
traffic was found to be the greatest source of noise. The public is deprived of the
information needed to fully evaluate this situation, because the outdated traffic report
contains inaccurate data.
Response to Comment #40: See Response to Comment #7, #10 and #30. Only the
northerly facing units are being required to install air conditioning units by mitigation
measure #12 of the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
Comment #4i: Traffic: This mitigation was already assigned 12/20/06 to Marsella Villas
project. This mitigation will eliminate left turns and therefore put almost all of the traffic
from this project onto industrial. This impact was not analyzed at all in the traffic report
or the MND. This large omission must be corrected, because this is another intersection
of concern.
Response to Comment #41: See Response to Comment #5, #6 and #10. The City
Traffic Section has reviewed the proposed mitigation improvement and found that there
are no direct or cumulative impacts that would adversely affect the level of service on
Industrial Boulevard.
Comment #42: Environmental checklist Form: III This project does contribute
significantly to an existing or projected air quality violation-CO or at the very least does
not help the city's reduction goal, because low impact development techniques are not
being used and air conditioning is being provided and recommended for use due to
excessive noise from traffic.
4--~
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 25 of37
Response to Comment #42: See Response to Comment #23 and #25. Use of air
conditioning units is an acceptable mitigation for noise abatement. Only the northerly
facing units are being required to install air conditioning units by mitigation measure #12
of the Mitigated Negative Declaration. General reduction measures including that this is
an infill project that is in close proximity to a public transit station are important factors
that contribute to the reduction of CO gases. Specific reduction measures will be
outlined as part of AQIP that will be fmalized at the building permit stage.
Comment #43: If a variance is given for setbacks residents will be excessively close to a
very high traffic road and there is growing evidence that this will cause children, seniors
and adults with respiratory problems ill effects. (ARB Land Use Handbook and other
sources)
Response to Comment #43: See Response to Comment #30. The project design features
will be done in accordance with the provisions of an approved Precise Plan. No threshold
of significance standards have been established by any local, state or federal regulatory
agencies that would allow an adequate analysis, conclusion, recommendation or
mitigation of the described concern.
Comment #44: V The Cultural Resources Survey is completely inadequate. The one for
Marsella Villas showed a huge number of sites within a mile of this property, but the
report for this project only deals with the site itself This is inadequate and does not meet
CEQUA standards
Response to Comment #44: The archaeological report prepared by Brian F. Smith and
Associates provided the level of information required by the City to satisfy CEQA
requirements for the evaluation of potential impacts to cultural resources of a project.
The one-mile-radius statement applies the review of records information for a one-mile
radius to observe the pattern of recorded archaeological sites in the area. However, since
no resources were identified on the project, a lengthy discussion is not relevant.
Furthermore, detailed information regarding archaeological sites in the area is not meant
to be available to the public. On Page 6 of the BFSA report, the statement is included
that nine archaeological sites are recorded within a one-mile radius. The Confidential
Appendix supplied to the City for this project includes all of the records information.
The size of a report is not the measure of adequacy. All of the pertinent information
required for CEQA review was included. The fact that the records searches and survey of
the property did not reveal any cultural sites is sufficient information to conclude the
project will not impact any cultural resources.
Comment #45: VIII There is a potential for increasing pollutant discharges because the
project is not using low impact development techniques and has inadequate amount of
pervious surfaces to absorb and treat runoff. The report did not adequately analyze the
ultimate destination of the runoff so it is impossible to evaluate how it would impact the
current drainage system. Another example of the public being deprived of it right to

information needed to make an accurate judgment as to the validity of the environmental
document.
Response to Comment #45: Please see response to Comments # 27, 28, and 29.
Comment #46: IX The project requires a CUP. A CUP requires the following findings.
which cannot be made given the current description of the project:
Response to Comment #46: Pursuant to CVMC 19.14.080, findings related to the CUP
will be included in the CVRC Resolution.
Comment #46a:
1. This project provides no service or facility that contributes to the
general well being of the neighbors or the community. Infact it adds to
the impact of excessive traffic congestion that has been imposed upon
this low income ethnically mixed community.
Response to Comment #46a: The proposed project will enhance the livability of
Chula Vista by implementing the adopted 2005 general plan in creating a high
density mixed use transit oriented development project. In addition to providing
new high density housing across the street from the Palomar Trolley station the
project will also remove an underutilized blighted asset from the community. The
project upon completion will have an increase in assessed valuation of
approximately $60 million. This translates into about $600,000 dollars in annual
gross tax increment to the redevelopment agency of which the Agency will receive
approximately $240,000 annually while the County, and School Districts share in
the remaining $360,000.
Comment #46b:
2. This use will be detrimental to the health. safety and general welfare of
persons residing in the vicinity. It will add to the burden of significant
traffic congestion without offering any mitigation. It will also pay
inadequate park fees and no traffic fees since these have not been set at
a level equal to or higher than in the east. It will also not contribute
toward upgrading the drainage of the area or providing missing
infrastructure. The city has a grant to provide cosmetic improvements
including sidewalks, gutters. etc. for the Palomar area. While
homeowners and small businesses are required to bear all this expense
themselves. This project will bear none of the expense. This is unfair
and more evidence of how certain developers run the city.
Response to Comment #46b: See Response to Comment #11, #12, #31 and #51.
Comment #46c:
3. This property will not comply with regulations and conditions specified
in this code for such use. It will not comply with regulations for
'1-q~
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments

multifamily in CVMC especially those relating to multifamily residential
per R-3 zone, setbacks and offstreet parking. The project is requesting
a 66% reduction in useable open space and a reduction in setbacks
from the sidewalk. This is detrimental to the health and welfare of the
potential residents due to the extremely heavy traffic on Palomar.
Response to Comment #46c: See Response to Comment #31 and #50. The
project complies with all regulations of the CC wne as modified by precise plan
standards adopted for the subject parcel based upon section 19.14.576 of the
Chula Vista Municipal Code. The proposed Precise Plan Modifying Standards
related to open space and front building setback are not detrimental to the health,
safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or
injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity. The reduction in open
space and front building setback would allow the construction of a project with an
urban character and pedestrian orientation, as mandated by the Transit Focus Area
designation of the City's 2005 General Plan.
As proposed, phase one of the project contains a two-car garage for each of the
residential units, plus 28 parking spaces for visitors. However, the modified
standard proposed parking is that the majority of the garages provide tandem
parking (one space behind the other) instead of side by side parking. Of the 104
residential units, 76 have garages with tandem parking. Each of the spaces,
standard or tandem, would be assigned to an individual unit and contained within
an enclosed garage for the unit. CVMC 19.62.020 (E) indicates that tandem
parking shall not qualify as required parking unless specifically approved by the
Planning Commission. This review and approval authority has been delegated to
the Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation pursuant to CVMC 2.55.050.
Tandem parking within a 10 ft x 40 ft. garage serves the same purpose as side by
side parking. A garage of 400 square feet of space can still accommodate two
vehicles and the two spaces would be available to the residents of the assigned
unit. Staff also believes that this parking situation takes on a lesser importance
because the proposed project is so close to the trolley station and allows for a
more compact development at the densities envisioned by the General Plan. The
proximity to the trolley station offers residents an important public transit
alternative to the private automobile.

and maintenance of such facilities or improvements in advance of the
city 'sphasing schedule. (Ord. 2790, 1999; Ord. 2448 S 2,1991).
H Above Clearly indicates that this development cannot occur because it is
acknowledged that the traffic on Palomar exceeds capacity and it is not
feasible to increase capacity at this time.

Comment #48; XII The project will induce substantial population growth in the Palomar
Gateway area through the building of 154 dwellings on 3.4 acres of now vacant land
This will be 400 or more new people, including children who will have no safe place to
play.
Response to Comment #48: With the recent update of the General Plan, the Montgomery
Specific Plan was repealed and replaced with a new vision for this area of the
southwestern portion of the City. The General Plan Land Use and Transportation (LUT)
Policy 43.4 and 43.5 for this area state that development projects:
"Provide a mix of uses with afocus on retail and some office uses along Palomar
Street in the Mixed Use Transit Focus Area, with residential uses above and/or
behind the retail and offices uses. " and;
"Provide a mix of local-serving retail and office uses near the Palomar Trolley
Station and at the Gateways into the Palomar Gateway District. "
The proposed project site is currently zoned CT-P, which is a commercial zone that does
not allow residential development. Since the CT-P zone does not allow residential
development, the General Plan policies cannot be implemented by this zone. The CC
+lD1)
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 30 of37
zone is currently the only zone district which allows development of mixed-use projects
through the issuance of a conditional use permit (CVMC 19.36.030 (0)). Therefore,
rezone of the project site from CT-P to CC-P would allow the proposed mixed-use
project and implement the General Plan's vision and policies for this area of the City.
The proposed CC zone will contribute to the public convenience and general welfare by
further assisting in the implementation of the General Plan MUR land use designation for
the site.
In relation to residential density within the area, LUT Policy 43.6 of the General Plan
states:
"In the Palomar Gateway District, residential densities within the Mixed Use
Transit Focus Area designation are intended to have a district-wide gross density
of 40 dwelling units per acre. "
The overall project proposes 154 units on 4.89 acres, which results in a density of 32
dwelling units per acre. This density is consistent with the City's General Plan policy for
the site and represents the maximum density permitted by the proposed CC zone. While
this is less than the goal of 40 DUlAC for the entire Palomar Gateway District, it is
equally important to provide a mix of densities throughout the District, with higher
densities adjacent to the trolley station as proposed on Lot 2 (56 du/acre) and lower
densities to the west and south of the subject site (26 du/acre). It is anticipated that more
dense projects will be developed in the future that will bring the average density up to
meet the goal for the overall District. The proposed residential density would provide an
urban, pedestrian-oriented project design that would complement the Palomar Trolley
Station and be compatible with the surrounding land uses.
Comment #49: XIII It is unclear ifmore public infrastructure will be needed because the
drainage study was incomplete.
Response to Comment #49: See Response to Comments #3, and 27.
Comment #50: Clearly more park space will be needed because an inadequate amount of
public and private space is to be provided by the project to accommodate the residents.
XlV. There is inadequate open space, which may induce residents to use nearby park
excessively.
Response to Comment #50: Pursuant to Tentative Map condition #24, the Applicant
shall pay all applicable Parkland Acquisition and Development Fees (pAD fees) at the
rates in effect at the time of approval of the map or building permit in accordance with
C.V.M.C. Chapter 17.10.
CVMC 19.28.090 requires the provision of 400 square feet of usable open space for 1
and 2-bedroom units, and 480 square feet for units with 3 or more bedrooms. The open
space may be provided in common usable open space areas, private patios, balconies, or
common recreational facilities. In accordance with the standards set forth by Section
Lj,- rb \
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments
Page 31 007
19.28.090 and the proposed unit mix (40 one and two-bedroom and 64 three-bedroom),
the total usable open space requirement for the project would be 46,720 square feet. The
project's proposed open space is 35,730 square feet, which represents a difference of
10,990 square feet (24% reduction) of use able open space.
The open space provided by the proposed project consists of one large common area
(approximately 5,800 sq. ft.) in the northern section of the property, next to Palomar
Street, that contains a variety of elements including a tot lot, grassy area, barbeque pits
and several arbors, and is protected by a decorative wall along Palomar Street. Another
common area (approximately 4,380 sq. ft.) is located along Frontage Road that is made
up of grassy area and landscape areas, which serve for passive recreation. A third major
common area is represented by a paseo that extends along the center of the site, between
the interior building structures, in a north-south direction. This area offers a major
pedestrian connection between the southern driveway, the large common area and
Palomar Street. Another open space element that is part of the proposed project is
represented by decks and balconies at each of the residential units.
Community Development staff has been working with the applicant on a variety of ways
to enhance the proposed open space areas in order to make it more useable for the
residents and reduce the open space deficit to the maximum extent possible.
Comment #51: XV The checklist acknowledges that the project will cause an increase in
traffic. This is not mitigated by the project in any w~. It will result in a change in traffic
patterns, since it will substantially increase the traffic on Industrial Blvd This could
increase the safety riskfor pedestrians. Mr. Quinones was hit by a hit and run driver and
killed because there was no curb cut on Ada last year. The planned improvements for
Palomar m~ or m~ not allow people to use sidewalks instead of being force into the
street. The design features of these townhomes will have entrances to garages opposite
each other in close proximity this could increase the hazard of collisions when drivers,
especially with larger vehicles enter or exit their garages. This is a questionable design
feature as are tandem garages, which require moving cars in and out of spaces
continually and could cause hazardous conditions.
Response to Comment #51: See Response to Comments #41. In 2006, the City received
a SANDAG Transit Oriented Design (TaD) grant to provide $2.1 million for street and
pedestrian improvements along Palomar Street, Industrial Boulevard and at the Palomar
trolley station. The improvements will include traffic calming features, landscaping and
streetscape amenities to augment the Transit Focus Area General Plan goals. The
pedestrian walkways will be 5 feet of sidewalk provided through the grant with an
additional 1.5 to 4 feet (varies) provided by the Bayvista Walk to provide a total width of
6.5 to 9 feet of walkway. Additionally, the grant project is building enhanced pedestrian
crossings at the Industrial Boulevard/Ada Street and Industrial Boulevard/Palomar Street
intersections. The City Traffic Section has further reviewed the proposed Palomar
Gateway Beautification improvements with respect to this project and found that there
are no direct or cumulative impacts that would adversely affect the level of service.

All of the residential buildings have a two-car garage for each dwelling unit. Each garage
has access from a 24-foot driveway that runs in the middle of two building or by the rear
of the buildings that front on Palomar Street. These driveways provide adequate space
for turning movements and vehicles exiting garages. The driveway dimensions comply
with CVMC Chapter 19.62.020, which requires that two-way driveways have a width of
24 feet. This driveway dimension also complies with the Fire Department minimum
requirements for access to fire equipment.
Comment #52: XVI The city currently will be over capacity for wastewater if
development continues. This project will add to this problem. The city has not yet dealt
with what is to be done to alleviate the problem of not having sufficient fUture capacity.
Until such time as the city deals with this very expensive problem, every project has a
potential negative effect upon the wastewater system. There currently are no water lines
or sewage lines or drainage pipes on the property all of these will need to be added The
city has not met its recycling goals so the life of its landfill is not as long as previously
predicted and every new project adds to this problem.
Response to Comment #52: According to the GMOC 2007 Annual Report, flows in the
City sewer facilities are all currently within acceptable engineering standards. The
project will be required to contribute their fare share toward the acquisition of sewer
capacity by paying the currently approved sewer capacity fee.

a. The library currently does not meet its threshold and will not until Rancho Del
Rey Library is built. Every new project increases this gap.
fL Police currently do not meet their Priority two threshold and have not for some
time. Every new project contributes to this problem
c. Traffic: The intersections adjacent to this project are operating significantly
below the I991 levels and worsening. This project will contribute a cumulative
effect to this non-compliance and should not be built.
d Parks and Recreation: the west has less than 1 acre per 1,000 people, every
increase in population without an increase in park space or adequate payment of
parkfies makes this situation worse. This project will not pay an adequate park
fie so it is contributing to not reaching the threshold
~ Drainage: the report is inadequate because it does not deal with the entire system
the project contributes to so it is impossible to evaluate this, which is in itself a
violation of CEQUA which requires that the public be provided with all
information to allow for a decision on the project.
i Sewer: There was no indication in sewer report of project being required to
provide improvements. Cumulatively every new connection puts further strain on
the system. San Diego maintains the main lines going to Point Loma and their
condition is questionable.
&- Water: We are being asked to cut back 20 gallons a day due to drought
conditions. Obviously adding users makes our water situation increasingly
precarious due to state and fideral policies and over reliance upon imported

water. Sweetwater provides much of its water locally, but every new resident
forces the SWA to import more water and puts us all at risk.
Response to Comment #53: See Response to Comment #3, #12, #25, #47a and #52.
Comment #54: XVIII b. The project will add to the significant cumulative effects a/the
projects completed on Ada Street and planned for Ada Street. These projects have
created cars parked bumper to bumper along both sides of the street as well as added
wear and tear on the streets and strains on the drainage system between Ada and
Dorothy. This project will add to these problems that negatively effect the quality of life
of existing residents. These effects are cumulatively significant as are the effects to water,
sewer and solid waste capacity when viewed cumulatively.
Response to Comment #54: See Response to Comment #5, #20, #27 and #52. The
sewer study analyzed the impacts of this project and the capacity of the city sewer
facilities to serve surrounding uses. The project is in an infill project in compliance with
the City's general plan land use designation. There is no evidence based on the analysis
found in the technical reports prepared for this project that demonstrate a cumulative
significant impact for water, sewer and solid waste capacity.
Comment #55: c. The project will cause significant negative effects upon the human
beings who will inhabit it in that they will be exposed to excessive noise and air pollution
that have well documented negative effects upon physical, emotional, social and
psychological health. (League for the Hard of Hearing's NOISE & HEALTH FACT
SHEET, NOISE POLLUTION, Electric Library presents Encyclopedia. com,
http://www.newscientist.comlnews/-Ithaca. NY, 5/22/2001)
The mitigations offered are minimal and will not fUlly mitigate these negative effects.
The traffic situation as acknowledged in the outdated traffic report and the MND is a
clear exasperation of an existing non-compliance with a standard (traffic will not
worsen from 1991 levels). This clearly is above a violation of a CEQUA standard of
significance. Projects that add even cumulatively to a violation of a standard must be
found to cause a significant negative effect, which requires mitigation or an EIR and
a statement of Over-riding Conditions.

Additional Comments on MND for Bayvista Walk:
Comment #56: Cultural/Historical Report The report I was given a copy of is totally
inadequate. It deals with the site alone. Law requires a mile around the site. the report
for Marasella Villas (that could be used here) was over 10 pages and had all kinds of
interesting information. This report is inadequate.
Response to Comment #56: See Response to Comment #44.
Lfr l~
MND 05-012 - Response to Comments

Comment #57: Since a subdivision map is required according to Cummings a PFFP is
also required. Where is this report? It needs to be evaluated before the project can be
approved. These are Townhomes which is a subdivision. The PFFP is part of the review
process.
Response to Comment #57: CVMC 19.80 ("Cummings") does not require preparation
ofa PFFP. See Response to Comment #12 and #47a.
Comment #58: The city is 35% worse off as far as co is concerned since 1991.
According to growth management threshold air quality is supposed to improve. What is
this project doing to improve the situation? Reports aren't adequate. What is LEED
certification? What is project doing to produce its own energy? Are tankless water
heaters being used? Olsen's promotional materials tout green building techniques. Is the
southwest not good enough to have a quality green project from this developer?
Response to Comment #58: See Response to Comment #25 and #42. According to the
GMOC 2007 Annual report, the City is in compliance with the Air Quality threshold
standard (page 1-28). Also, due to the projects proximity to transit, there is an expected
increase in public transit ridership and fewer air quality impacts would result from
individuals relying solely on the automobile.
In addition, this project is an infill development proposal that is transit oriented being
located directly across the Palomar Street Trolley Station. Projects of this nature
typically use less energy for space heating and cooling than standard suburban
development consisting of single-family detached residential homes.
Comment #59: Environmental Justice demands that the community impacts be
considered. This is the lowest income area of Chula Vista. It should not have another
inferior project with excess traffic, inadequate parking and inadequate open space. we
don't want a future slum here. There is inadequate space for children to play, excessive
loss of permeable surface area, inadequate on site treatment of runoff by vegetation, and
no use of energy saving sustainable building practices or energy generation that will
reduce its carbon footprint by at least 35% common building practices are now
exceeding standard. New state laws require greater reductions than project has.
Response to Comment #59: See Response to Comment #20, #34, #46 and #57. The
project is in an infill project in compliance with the City's general plan land use
designation. There is no evidence based on the analysis conducted as part of the
Mitigated Negative Declaration that adverse impacts to the environment have not been
adequately mitigated.

particular intersection, but the entire stretch of road is still over capacity unless
engineers get a different count than what they reported on TMP.CEQUAfortunately does
not rely upon the city's thresholds which deliberately avoid using any data that show a
problem. Road capacity is more in keeping with Cummings, which also says that roads
must be worse than 1991. Looking at 1991 data is only way to actually tell whether roads
meet threshold standard or not. I am 100% sure that Palomar exceeds this standard since
Palomar Trolley Center was not there in 1991. It and Target are responsible for a huge
amount of the traffic. You can include this comment in comments on MND, since now that
it has been pointed out to me I realize we need data from 1991 to see whether this street
exceeds city standard or not.
Response to Comment #60: See Response to Comment #11, #12 and #31.
Comment #61: page 17 in MND XV b. Would the project exceed, either individually or
cumulatively, a level of service standard established by the county congestion
management agency for designated roads and highways. I wonder what county service
standard is? I bet it has to do with capacity?

Management (GMOC) and traffic standards for City owned streets.

Comment #65: Ms. Theresa Acerro, our Southwest Chula Vista Civic Association
President is not alone in her concerns on the MND Bayvista Walk, case No. IS-05-012.
There are many residents in our area who are Spanish speaking and or don't own a
computer. If all the residents in the southwest section of Chula Vista could communicate
their concerns on how they're treated and not listened to, your office would be
overwhelmed with complaints.
For too long the City ofChula Vista has neglected Southwest Chula Vista and now that
there are changes that impact us we want to know how these changes will be done.
Ms. Theresa Acerro attends many city meetings and stays on top of what happens or will
happen. She keeps the Southwest Chula Vista Civic Association informed and for many
this is how we know what is being done. Many residents because of advanced age and
lack of convenient transportation are unable to attend city meetings. I suggest that
meetings should be conducted in Southwest Chula Vista that impact Southwest Chula
Vista. If this was done and the residents understood, could voice their opinions, and
were listened to what is at stake, there would be more harmony and satisfaction among
the residents.
Please consider this and keep us informed, not after the developers start developing, but
in the beginning, the middle and what the end result will be. The residents want to have
their thoughts and concerns a part of this process.

Comment #66: The traffic for industrial has been computed incorrectly. Too few cars are
mentioned for morning and evening from Project planned for corner of Ada and
Industrial. There are 90 townhomes. This means there must be 90 workers, more likely
closer to 180 commuting morning and night. The vast majority of these workers will go to
Palomar to get to work. Very Jew will head toward Anita, since there are far far fewer
jobs to the south than to the north. it is now possible to actually measure how many
people from three condo projects now complete travel this way daily, although this

number will have to be increased because many of these people now use Frontage and
when median is built will not use frontage any longer. as stated previously ahuge gap in
the Traffic Report is an insufficent and inaccurate analysis of traffic on Industrial, which
will significantly increase (by 1,000 or more cars with the Bayvista Walk project. this is a
direct impact. I am not sure how Industrial can be classified as a class II collector since
the street lights aren't as close together as in the ordinance are they?

Memo
TO:
Members of the Redevelopment Advisory Committee
FROM:
Stacey Kurz, Senior Community Development Specialist
Miguel Z. Tapia, Senior Community Development Specialist
DATE:
August 2, 2007
Review NO.2 of DRC-05-39 Bayvista Walk (765-795 Palomar Street)
SUBJECT:
Proiect DescriDtion:
Bayvista Walk is a proposal for the construction of a mixed-use project consisting of
multi-family residential and limited commercial uses on a vacant site on Palomar
Street between Frontage Road and Industrial Boulevard (Attachment 1, Locator Map).
As previously presented, the project is proposed to be developed in two phases. The
first phase represents the development of the 4-acre portion (Lot 1) of the site to be
developed with the 104-unit residential project. The second phase located on the
eastern-most portion of the site (Lot 2) with an approximate area of 0.89 acres, is
proposed to be developed with the mixed-use residential/commercial element that
would contain an affordable housing component. This phase of the project includes
the construction of a podium building structure with 5,000 - 10,000 square feet of
commercial space on the first floor, 50 residential units on the upper floors of the
building and 102 parking spaces on the first floor and subterranean level. Overall, the
mixed-use project proposal being presented to the Redevelopment Advisory
Committee (RAC) is for the construction of a two phased development consisting of
154 Townhome units, 325 parking spaces, and approximately 21,000 square feet of
usable open space (see Attachment 2, Design Plans). The residential buildings in
Phase 1 contain a density of 26 DUlAC. The proposed density for Phase 2 would be
56.2 DUlAC. Total proposed density for the combined project is 32 DUlAC. Overall,
the site density is within the range of the General Plan mixed-use designation and
maximum permitted density for mixed-use projects under the Central Commercial
zone (32 du/ac).
4---- \D,
Review No.2 - DRC-05-39, Olson Co.
Page 2
August 2, 2007
Phase 1 would include design parameters that would insure Phase 2 provide the
following:
. Mixed-use development at General Plan level densities;
. Affordable housing to meet or exceed project requirements;
. Internal connection to Phase 1;
. Continuous pedestrian access to transit; and
. Integrated design elements with Phase 1.
A concept building design and layout have been provided to illustrate how these
elements can be achieved with the future development of Phase 2.
The proposed project requires the processing of the following applications: environmental
review application, design review application, re-zone of the site from CT-P to CC-P,
Conditional Use Pennit application for the proposed commercial/residential project, a
Precise Plan and development standards, and a Tentative Subdivision Map for the
condominiums. The following city review bodies would consider the various aspects of
the project: Redevelopment Advisory Committee, Planning Commission, Chula Vista
Redevelopment Corporation, and City Council. Review and analysis of the project is
based on the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and the guidelines of the City's
Design and Landscape Manuals.
Proiect Location:
The subject property is located on the south side of Palomar Street between Frontage
Road and Industrial Boulevard. The site has been vacant for several years and was
used as a temporary site for the sale of pumpkins and Christmas trees.
The site is located within the area designated by the 2005 General Plan Update as the
Palomar Gateway District. It is located close to the Interstate 5 ramps and next to the
Palomar Trolley Station, one of the busiest entrances to the City and next to one of its
most active commercial enclaves. Existing uses, General Plan and Zoning
designations of adjacent properties to the subject site are as follows:

Buildina Desian:
The buildings are designed in contemporary urban architecture, with elements such as
steel awnings supported by steel ropes, clean lines, simple box-like massing; flat
parapet roofs, rectangular-shaped windows with minimum mullions and simple
contemporary door and window trim. The building height ranges from three-story
Townhomes (42 feet) to five-story mixed-use podium building (approximately 60 feet).
Several tower elements (approximately 53' in height), located on the buildings along
Palomar Street will serve as landmarks to designate this as the entrance or "gateway"
into the City.
Site Desian:
As designed, the site will contain two 16-dwelling unit buildings fronting on Palomar
Street, eight 9-unit buildings three stories high, and a five-story mixed-use podium
building at the corner nearest the trolley station. Access into the site is on Frontage
Road and Industrial Boulevard. These access points lead into a two-way driveway,
running in an east-west direction along the south property boundary, which provides
access to the private driveways leading into the garage of the individual units. Access
into the mixed-use podium building is through the driveway entrance off Industrial
Boulevard.
Internal pedestrian circulation is provided through a system of walkways (concrete
sidewalks) and paseos that connect the residential units to Palomar Street at various
points. A wide landscaped area with a meandering path runs north to south through
the development and connects to the large central open space area (containing a tot
lot, a water fountain and other open space amenities), which terminates in an
ornamental wall and pedestrian gate for residents to access Palomar Street. Another
access point to Palomar Street is provided by a paseo between Lots 1 and 2 closer to
the intersection of Palomar and Industrial. There are 32 homes in Lot 1 with front
4- \ \ \
Review No.2 - DRC-05-39, Olson Co.

doors facing Palomar with patio enclosures that establish a direct relationship to the
street.
This pedestrian circulation system in turn provides several access points that connect
the residential project with the Palomar Trolley Station located across Industrial
Boulevard. The future retail component will further enhance the relationship between
the project and the transit station by creating additional pedestrian activity. In
addition, pedestrian circulation will be provided between the Bayvista Walk project site
and the recently approved Marcella Villas project to be built at the site located to the
south. This will be achieved by extending one of the Bayvista Walk project's paseos
across the southern driveway and through the southern property line to connect with
the easement at the Marcella Villas site. As shown on the site plan, the pedestrian
walkway will need to be modified in order to coincide and connect at the same point
along the southern boundary line.
A landscape concept plan was included with the latest project submittal. However, it
has not been reviewed by the Landscape Planner and formal comments have not
been formulated yet. On a preliminary basis, the landscape plan provides a balanced
arrangement of trees, shrubs, vines, groundcovers and turf throughout the site.
Additional comments regarding usability of landscaped areas are provided in the
following section of this report. A thorough analysis of the landscape plan will be
conducted by the City's Landscape Planner based on the guidelines of the Landscape
Manual, and comments and recommendations will be provided to the applicant as part
of the review process. The project's landscape concept will also be reviewed in
relationship with the streetscape enhancement plan being prepared for Palomar Street
and Industrial Boulevard.
Discussion Items:
A number of recommendations were made by staff, and were communicated both in
the last memorandum addressed to RAC and in a later letter addressed to the
applicant. The RAC initially reviewed this project on May 3, 2007 and expressed a
number of concerns. Following the first RAC meeting, revised plans were submitted
to the City by the Applicant. The following matrix summarizes the RAC comments
generated at the May 3rd meeting and provides a summary of changes made by the
applicant to address the issues.

provide approximately 20,726 sq.
ft. of common and private open
space. However, if design
modifications to the existing
landscaped/developed areas are
made, the usability of open space
could increase significantly.
Staff would propose the addition
of a variety of design elements
and features to increase the
usability of the open space areas.
These could include elements
such as benches and vertical
flowerbeds with seating areas.
In addition, staff would
recommend that the applicant
look into the feasibility of adding
rooftop gardens with sitting areas.
Finally, patios in each of the
residential units on Phase 1 could
be counted toward the
requirements of CYMC if they
were enlarged slightly to meet the
minimum code dimensions of six
feet.
All of these recommendations
would increase the usable open
space and minimize the gap
between the proposed open
space and code requirements.

I financially feasible.
The appl icant proposes to fu Ifi II
the mixed-use component on
the 0.89-acre corner lot
('podium') with densities of up
to 56 du/ac. The corner lot
would be conveyed to the
Redevelopment Agency for
implementation of this higher
density project. The
Redevelopment Agency would
require that the future
development meet the vision of
the General Plan. Conditions
will be attached to the project,
as well as design parameters, to
insure integration of the two
phases.
The applicant has proposed to
fulfill the affordable housing
obligation on the corner piece
('podium') at Industrial and
Palomar by setting-aside the
property to the City's
Redevelopment Agency.
The Agency is obligated to
ensure the affordable housing is
completed. Conditions will be
attached to the one-acre site, as
well as design parameters for the
affordable housing component.
The General Plan's Palomar
Gateway distrid calls for higher
density mixed-use development
near the trolley station with less
dense residential development to
the west and south of the station.
Overall densities for the entire
distrid should average 40 du/ac.
The proposed project provides a
density range of 26 to 56 dulac,
with an average density of 31.5
dulac. The proposed density is
within the density range of the
General Plan and permissible
density allowed for mixed-use
projeds in the Central
Commercial zone (maximum 32
du/ac).
The City's Affordable Housing
Requirement (Inclusionary
Program) identifies priorities for
fulfilling the affordable obligation.
Although meeting the obligation
on-site is the most desirable
option, land set-asides provide a
unique opportunity for the
Agency to leverage add itional
affordable units and potentially at
deeper income targets.
The Inclusionary requirement of
the applicant would be 16 units
(10%), however by the Agency
leading the 'podium" projed
additional units may be built
(minimum of 15% or 23 units).
While staff is still processing the submittal and awaiting comments from other city
departments on final site design; Community Development staff has reviewed and
L\- \\ ~
Review No.2 - DRC-05-39, Olson Co.

August 2, 2007
analyzed the project proposal for consistency with the overall objectives of the
Palomar Gateway District identified in the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance.
Based on this review, staff has determined that the project is in substantial
conformance with these objectives and feels the revised project submittal has been
significantly improved from the first submittal. Further, staff believes the revisions
address the concerns and comments raised by RAC at the May 3rd meeting.
Therefore, staff requests that the RAC consider the revised project and the
information and analysis provided in this memorandum to formulate a
recommendation on the project.
Committee Member Conflicts:
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the RAC members. No conflict exists for
members and alternates of the RAC.

DRAFT SUMMARY
CHULA VISTA REDEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE (RAC)
August 2, 2007
RAC QUESTIONS:
Members asked for clarification on the pedestrian access and added safety features to the
common area. Members were also interested in receiving more information regarding the
SANDAG grant project.
With the increased impervious area, what are the impacts to the downstream system?
Is there a guarantee that once Phase I is built that Phase II will also be built?
Member asked for clarification on the Open Space Standards.
PUBLIC COMMENT:
Theresa Acerro, President of the Southwest Civic Association: Concerned with existing
traffic situation, parking, density of podium building, need for the 1-5 bridge to be
widened, noticing for the MND, and required mitigation at Frontage and Palomar.
D. Combs, Resident: Concerned with existing traffic situation and parking.
RAC COMMENTS:
Like the project in this urban environment, it seems like a nice place; appropriate for
someone that might want to buy a small space.
Would like the applicant to work with the staff and creates some open space on the roofs,
that would be a bonus.
Think the design and all the other factors are helping to create a gateway.
Recommend that we move this project forward to the CVRe.
VOTE: AYES: five
Nos: zero
ABSTAIN: two
Project will be recommended to the CVRe.

CHAPTER 5
8.4.3 Palomar Gateway District
Description of District
The Palomar Gateway District (Figure 5-23) is located at the interchange of Palomar Street and
Interstate 5. and is charactertzed by the Palomar Trolley Station, located at the southeast quadrant
of Palomar Street and Industrial Boulevard.
Existing Conditions
North of Palomar Street are light industrial businesses and multi-family housing. South of
Palomar Street is a mix of single-family and multi-family housing extending south to Anita Street
Vision for District
The Palomar Gateway District is the major southern gateway into the City and functions as one of
the activity corridors in the City. The Dlstrtct provides housing and support uses near a regional
transit route. Higher density residential development within walking distance of the Palomar
Trolley Station proVides additional affordable housing opportunities.
Local retail and services are along Palomar Street and more retail
and services are in mixed use developments south of Palomar
Street
In addition to nearby community-serving retail uses on Broadway
and Palomar Street a new five-acre .neighborhood park is located
. in the area north of Oxford Street within walking distance of new
residential housing.

West Fairfield District
Description of District
The west Fairfield District (see Figure S-23), originally part of the Fairfield neighborhood that was
severed by the construction of Interstate 5, is located on the west side of Interstate 5, between
Palomar Street and Main Street and is flanked by San Diego Bay on the west
Existing Conditions
The West Fairfield District has a mix of light industrial and office uses interspersed with older,
single-family homes and vacant lots. West Fairfield is somewhat isolated from the rest of Chula
Vista, due to Interstate 5 forming its eastern edge. Pedestrian routes across the freeway are
limited and heavily traveled by cars and trucks. Freeway on- and off-ramps at Palomar Street
provide convenient freeway access into the District for vehicles.
Vision for District
The West Fairfield District has been redeveloped through a
well-planned and coordinated master plan. There are few land
use conflicts, and land uses have been expanded by
reclaiming an old 5an Diego settlement pond to the southwest
The West Fairfield District has good freeway access at Palomar
and Main Streets, and it is an employment center, with regional
retail and other employment uses. An educational facility is
also located in the West Fairfield District

APPENDIX A
BAYVISTA WALK DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
PALOMAR STREET AT INDUSTRIAL BOULEVARD
Proiect Description
The proposal is for the construction of a two-phase mixed-use residential/commercial
project. Phase 1, on a 4-acre lot, would include 104 town home condominiums in 10
building structures. The town homes are proposed as three-story units with 2-car
garages. Phase 2, on a 0.89-acre lot, would be a mixed-use podium building consisting
of 5,000 to 10,000 square feet of retail commercial area on the first floor with the
remaining second through fifth floors consisting of 50 residential units. Parking for the
mixed-use podium would be provided in a subterranean garage. The project provides
private open space (in the form of decks or patios), as well as common open space in
the form of active and passive recreation and leisure I areas.
The proposed project requires the processing of the following applications: design
review application, re-zone of the site from CT-P to CC-P, Conditional Use Permit
application for the proposed commercial/residential project, and a Tentative Subdivision
Map for the condominiums. The following city review bodies would consider the
various aspects of the project: Redevelopment Advisory Committee, Housing Advisory
Commission, Planning Commission, Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation, and City
Council.
Compliance with Zonina and Plans
The project site is currently zoned Thoroughfare Commercial with a Precise Plan
designator (CT-P) and the General Plan designation is Transit Focus Area. The
applicant has applied for a rezone to Central Commercial with a Precise Plan modifier
(CC-P), as well as a conditional use permit to allow the proposed commercial/residential
(mixed-use) development, pursuant to the requirements of the Apartment Residential
zone (R-3). The proposed project will be consistent with the regulations of the R-3 zone
and the goals, policies and density requirements of the Palomar Gateway Transit Focus
Area identified in the City's 2005 General Plan.
land Use Analvsis
The proposed project site is located on Palomar Street between Industrial Boulevard
and Frontage Road, within the Southwest part of the City. It is located across Industrial
Boulevard from the Palomar Trolley Station and approximately a quarter-mile from the
Interstate 5 Palomar Exit Ramp. The project site is part of the Palomar Gateway
District, and is designated by the 2005 General Plan as a Mixed-Use Transit Focus
Area. General Plan Objective LUT 43 calls for the establishment of a Mixed Use Area
around the Palomar Trolley Stations and provides a set of detailed policies in terms of
development uses, intensity, design and amenities for the District.
Lj,- \ ~D
In addition to the General Plan objective and policies, an urban design strategy, entitled
"Palomar Gateway TOO District Conceptual Development Strategy" was developed to
provide further direction for transit-oriented design. Combined, these two documents
seek to ensure goals of the District are met, such as: urban development with low- and
high-rise development, higher density, clustering residential and retail (mixed-use),
affordable housing opportunities, providing a "Gateway" entrance, and pedestrian
connectivity to the trolley station and future neighborhood park on Oxford Street.
Intensity/Height
The proposed project includes two phases of development. The first phase provides
104 residential condominiums proposed on Lot 1 at a density of 26 DUlAC in three-story
town home building structures. The second phase (Lot 2) includes the construction of a
mixed-use, podium building with 5,000-10,000 square feet of street level retail uses and
50 residential units on floors two through five for a density of 56.2 DUlAC on the corner
of Industrial Boulevard and Palomar, closest to the trolley station.
Between Lots 1 and 2, the project provides a mix of low- (3 stories) and mid-rise (5
stories) buildings per LUT Section 43.8. In addition, the podium building provides
street level retail development with residential uses above and behind it for a combined
density for Lots 1 and 2 of 31.5 DUlAC. While this is less than the goal of 40 DUlAC for
the entire Palomar Gateway District as mentioned in Section 43.6 of the LUT, it is
equally important to provide a mix of urban solutions in the District, with higher densities
adjacent to the trolley station as proposed on Lot 2. It is anticipated that more dense
projects will be developed in the future that will bring the average density up to meet the
goal for the overall District.
The General Plan and urban design strategy also identify objectives to provide
affordable housing close to the transit center and pedestrian connectivity to both the
trolley station and future neighborhood park. As proposed, Lot 2 will be conveyed to the
City for future development of affordable and market rate housing. While the
developers inclusionary requirement is 10% of the total project, or 16 units, this project
will leverage additional affordable units since projects with City participation have a
higher inclusionary requirement of 15% or 23 units. In addition, BayVista Walk
residents will have access to the trolley station to the northeast and future neighborhood
park to the south through a system of internal pedestrian walkways, a main pedestrian
paseo, enhanced pavement features, and direct access along Palomar Street for 32
units in Lot 1 with front doors adjacent to the sidewalk.
Overall, the combined project provides consistency with goals and objectives of the
General Plan Palomar Gateway District.

A. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for
compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act and has conducted an Initial Study,
IS-05-012, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act. Based upon results of
the Initial Study, the Environmental Review Coordinator determined that the project could result
in effects on the environment. However, revisions to the project made by or agreed to by the
applicant would avoid the effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant
effects would occur; therefore, the Environmental Review Coordinator prepared a Mitigated
Negative Declaration, IS-05-012.
The Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation , in the exercise of its independent
judgment, and based on the information set forth in the record of its proceedings, finds as
follows: the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
(IS-05-012), on file in the Planning and Building Department, has been prepared in accordance
with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the
Environmental Review Procedures of the City of Chula Vista; the Project's environmental
impacts will be mitigated by adoption of the Mitigation Measures described in the Mitigated
Negative Declaration, and contained in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and
the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program is designed to ensure that that the Project
complies with the Mitigation Monitoring Program.
B. REZONE
tv\~~
CYRC Resolution No. 2007-
Page 3
1. The CYRC does hereby recommend approval of the rezone (pCZ-07-01) from
Commercial Thoroughfare with Precise Plan (CT-P) to Central Commercial with Precise Plan
(CC-P) based upon the following findings:
a.Public necessity, convenience and the general welfare and good zoning practices
support the amendment to the Municipal Code.
The proposed CCP zone would provide an implementing zone for the existing Transit
Focus Area (TFA) designation of the City's 2005 General Plan, and will contribute to the
public convenience and general welfare by further assisting the City's efforts to satisfy
the goals and objectives of the General Plan Land Use and Transportation (LUT) Policy
43.4, 43.5 and 43.6 for this area. The CC zone is the only zoning district currently
available that allows establishment of mixed use high-density residential development
standards in a manner that complies with the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
b. The rezoning of the property will allow the project to further the goals and objectives
of the Amended and Restated Redevelopment Plan (2004) regarding the removal of blight
and physical improvement to this area of the redevelopment project area.
2. The CYRC further recommends approval of the City of Chula Vista Zoning Map
established by Section 19.18.010 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code to rezone the site as
depicted in Exhibit B from CT -P to CC-P (Central Commercial Precise Plan).
C. PRECISE PLAN FINDINGS
The CYRC does hereby recommend approval of the establishment of Precise Plan
Modifying Standards, based upon the following findings:
1. That such plan will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be
detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or
working in the vicinity, or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity.
The proposed project will contribute to the public convenience and general
welfare by assisting the City's efforts to satisfy the goals and objectives of the
General Plan Land Use and Transportation (LUT) Policy 43.4, 43.5, 43.6, 43.11
and 43.12 for this area regarding the provision of mixed use higher density
residential development in a pedestrian oriented environment, and the goals and
objectives of the Merged Chula Vista Redevelopment Project Amended and
Restated Redevelopment Plan (2004) regarding the removal of blight and the
provision of physical improvement to this area of the redevelopment project area.
The proposed CC zone and associated Precise Plan Modifying Standards would
allow a project to be developed that is consistent with the existing Transit Focus
Area (TF A) designation of the City's 2005 General Plan and allows the orderly
growth of this area of the city.
The proposed Precise Plan Modifying Standards will not have a negative
impact on the surrounding neighborhood because the proposed standards allow
'"t..- \ IRb
CYRC Resolution No. 2007-
Page 4
the applicant to design a Project that is more compatible with higher density
residential and transit-oriented mixed-use development planned for the area. The
surrounding area includes commercial uses, a transit station, and medium to high
residential uses. The proposed modified standards will allow the flexibility in
establishing new development standards for building setbacks and open space
regulations that will permit construction of higher density multi family and
neighborhood serving commercial uses which is more appropriate for the area, as
it transitions from existing multi and single-family development to transit-
oriented high density residential and mixed use type development.
The proposed Precise Plan ModifYing Standards related to open space and
building setbacks are not detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of
persons residing or working in the vicinity, or injurious to property or
improvements in the vicinity. The reduction in open space and front building
setback allow the construction of a project with an urban character and pedestrian
orientation, as mandated by the Transit Focus Area designation of the City's 2005
General Plan. The proposed building setback along Palomar (0.5 to 6 feet) is
intentionally reduced to create a more urban edge between the proposed building
and the sidewalk and Palomar Street. While the proposed setback would deviate
from the Zoning Ordinance, the reduction in the setback would afford the project a
more urban and pedestrian-oriented character by being closer to the sidewalk, as
compared with a suburban type of development with larger front setbacks. The
Precise Plan Modifying Standards would also enhance access to the Palomar
Trolley Station with thirty two (32) of the units closer to and accessing directly
onto Palomar Street and the remaining units provide clear pedestrian access and
connections through the site to the trolley station. Sidewalks along Palomar Street
would be widened for a total walkway width of6.5 feet and separated from traffic
along Palomar Street by a 5 foot wide landscaped area (for a total 11.5 feet of
parkway) to further promote the pedestrian orientation and convenience of
walking to nearby commercial and transit uses, and with the potential of
improving the health and safety of persons residing in the area.
Along Frontage Road, the required exterior side yard setback of the CC
zone is 25 feet. The project's exterior side yard setback is proposed to vary from
15 feet to 50 feet. A reduced side yard setback is only proposed at the corner of
Palomar Street and Frontage Road and then widens up to 50 feet south along
Frontage Road. The modified standard at the corner allows the building to be more
prominent at this entryway and makes more of a gateway statement (in keeping
with the goals of the General Plan) than would otherwise be possible using the
more suburban standard of25 feet.
The proposed project will enhance the livability of this area of Chula Vista
through the creation and maintenance of a mixed-use project that will help
promote the City as a stable and economically and socially diverse community.
4r\ L,~
CYRC Resolution No. 2007-

2. That such plan satisfies the principle for the application of the P modifying
district as setforih in CVMC 19.56.041.
The Precise Plan Modifying District ("P" modifier) has already been
established on the site under the existing Commercial Thoroughfare zone (CT-P
zone) and will continue to be effective under the proposed Central Commercial
zone (CC-P). The purpose of the Precise Plan Modifying District is to allow
diversification in the spatial relationship of land uses, density, buildings,
structures, landscaping and open spaces, as well as design review of architecture
and signs through the adoption of specific conditions of approval for development
of property in the city. Within the boundaries of the "P" modifying district, the
location, height, size and setbacks of buildings or structures, open spaces, signs
and densities indicated on the precise plan shall take precedence over the
otherwise applicable regulations of the underlying zone. Pursuant to CVMC
19.56.041, the "P" modifying district may be applied to areas within the city when
one or more circumstances are evident including:
'The subject property, or the neighborhood or area in which the property
is located, is unique by virtue of topography, geological characteristics,
access, configuration, trqffic circulation or some social or historic
situation requiring special handling of the development on a precise plan
basis. "
The Project proposes to utilize the eXlstmg "P" modifier to establish
building setbacks and open space standards that represent a modified standard
from the Zoning Code requirements The proposed precise plan modifying
standards are necessary to implement an urban pedestrian-oriented project, as
called for by the 2005 General Plan and provide the flexibility to allow
construction of the Project. The site is unique in the sense that is close to the
Palomar Trolley Station and is part of the General Plan Transit Focus Area, which
calls for the development of mixed-use, pedestrian oriented projects with an urban
character. The site is surrounded by existing and proposed urban and pedestrian
oriented uses such as commercial uses, a transit station, and medium to high-
density residential uses.
The proposed reduction in the front building setback (0.5 to 6 feet) along
Palomar Street will set the building close to the property line, establishing a closer
relationship between the building and the sidewalk. Along Frontage Road, the
exterior side yard setback of the CC zone is 25 feet. The project's exterior side
yard setback is proposed to vary from 15 feet to 50 feet. A reduced side yard
setback is only proposed at the corner of Palomar Street and Frontage Road and
then widens up to 50 feet south along Frontage Road. The modified standard at the
corner allows the building to be more prominent at this entryway and makes more
of a gateway statement than would otherwise be possible using the more suburban
standard of 25 feet. The proposed open space standard will also contribute to
~ r-\ \..p '\
CYRC Resolution No. 2007-
Page 6
implement the project by providing unique open space elements that are urban in
nature, such as rooftop patios, vertical landscape elements, and seating areas.
3. That any exceptions granted which deviate from the underlying zoning
requirements shall be warranted only when necessary to meet the purpose and
application of the P precise plan modifying district.
The reduction in the building setbacks and open space are warranted and
necessary to accomplish an urban pedestrian oriented project, as mandated by the
2005 General Plan vision and policies. While the required front building setback
of the CC zone is 25 feet, the building line map requires a five foot setback along
Palomar Street. AI; noted in the Zoning Ordinance, the building line map takes
precedence over the zoning district. The proposed front building setback of 0.5 to
6 feet creates the urban character and interface of the building with Palomar Street
and sidewalk that is more pedestrian oriented as envisioned by the General Plan.
Along Frontage Road, the required exterior side yard setback is 25 feet while the
proposed setback would vary from 15 feet to 50 feet. A reduced side yard setback
is only proposed at the comer of Palomar Street and Frontage Road and then
widens up to 50 feet south along Frontage Road. The modified standard at the
comer allows the building to be more prominent at this entryway and makes more
of a gateway statement than would otherwise be possible using the more suburban
standard of 25 feet.
The reduction in the open space is also warranted and necessary in that it
allows the construction of the proposed site plan layout. Attempting to
accommodate the required open space would reduce the area for buildings and
associated improvement and potentially the density as called for in the 2005
General Plan. At the same time, the type and quality of the proposed open space
offers a variety of open space elements with an urban character that do not require
additional land, such as balconies, rooftop patios, as well as pedestrian corridors
between building structures. These elements contribute to maintain the desired
density of the project, while providing high quality urban recreation amenities.
Therefore, the requested modified standards under the Precise Plan are
warranted in order to achieve the purpose of the Precise Plan Modifying District.
4. That approval of this plan will conform to the general plan and the adopted
policies of the City of Chula Vista.
The Project has been designed and evaluated in accordance with the goals
and objectives of the General Plan, including the Transit Focus Area. The Precise
Plan will allow the Project to be consistent with the goals and objectives of the
General Plan, and the Chula Vista Municipal Code. The General Plan Land Use
and Transportation (LUT) Policy 43.4 and 43.5 for this area state that
development projects should:
~ -\ lp t
CYRC Resolution No. 2007-
Page 7
"Provide a mix of uses with a focus on retail and some office uses along
Palomar Street in the Mixed Use Transit Focus Area, with residential uses
above and/or behind the retail and offices uses. " and;
"Provide a mix of local-serving retail and office uses near the Palomar
Trolley Station and at the Gateways into the Palomar Gateway District. "
In order to implement the General Plan, the project proposes to rezone site
from CT-P to the CC-P zone, which allows mixed-use projects through the
issuance of a conditional use permit. For this area of the City, this is the only
zoning district currently available to implement the 2005 General Plan mixed-
use designation. In relation to residential density within the area, LUT Policy
43.6 ofthe General Plan states:
"In the Palomar Gateway District, residential densities within the Mixed
Use Transit Focus Area designation are intended to have a district-
wide gross density of 40 dwelling units per acre. "
The project proposes 154 units on 4.89 acres, which results in a density of
32 dwelling units per acre. This density is consistent with the City's General Plan
policy for the site and represents the maximum density permitted by the proposed
CC zone. The proposed residential density would provide an urban, pedestrian-
oriented project design that would complement the Palomar Trolley Station and
be compatible with the surrounding land uses.
The General Plan provides further guidance on design and landscaping for
the Palomar Gateway through LUT Policy 43.11 and 43.12, stating:
".. the improvement of Palomar Street as a gateway to the City. "
"Provide for safe, effective, and aesthetic pedestrian crossings and
improvements to Palomar Street and Industrial Boulevard"
The Precise Plan and the proposed Modifying Standards for the reduction in
the building setbacks and open space conform to the General Plan and its policies.
The reduction in the front building setback from the required 5 feet to the proposed
0.5 to 6 feet and side yard reduction from 25 to 15 to 50 feet will create a more urban
character and will establish a closer relationship between the building and the
sidewalk and street and increase access to the Palomar trolley station. While the
required setbacks were intended in the past to create a suburban chararcter, the
reduced front and side yard setbacks create the urban and pedestrian orientation
called for by the General Plan, particularly since the proposed project is designated as
a Transit Focus Area.
4r-y\,4,
CYRC Resolution No. 2007-
Page 8
The reduction in open space also conforms to the policies of the General
Plan. While the amount of open space provided is less than the required, the type and
quality of the proposed open space is consistent with a mixed-use, high density and
pedestrian-oriented project. The proposed open space and the elements that compose
it, such as balconies, rooftops, urban landscape elements, conform to and create a
more urban and pedestrian-oriented project. The proposed composition of the open
space elements provide the project residents a high quality of recreational
opportunities a more urban environment, which conforms with the vision and
policies of the General Plan.
D. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
The CYRC does hereby recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit, (SUPS-07-
0]) subject to the conditions listed in Exhibit C of this resolution, and based upon the following
findings.
1. That the proposed use at the particular location is necessary or desirable to provide a
service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or
the community.
The proposed project will enhance the livability of this area of Chula Vista
through the creation and maintenance of a mixed-use project that will help promote the
City as a stable and economically and socially diverse community. A primary objective of
redevelopment is to use tax increment to address blighted conditions. The vacant
property has been vacant for many years. The proposed project will eliminate this blight
and make the surrounding area much safer for the existing residents, trolley station, and
hotel.
2. That such use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to
the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, or
injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity.
The proposed mixed use project will contribute to the public convenience and
general welfare by assisting the City's efforts to meet the goals and objectives of the
General Plan Land Use and Transportation (LUT) Policies 43.4, 43.5, 43.6, 43.11 and
43.]2 for this area regarding the provision of mixed use higher density residential
development in a pedestrian oriented environment, and the goals and objectives of the
Merged Redevelopment Project Amended and Restated Redevelopment Plan (2004)
regarding the removal of blight and physical improvement to this area of the
redevelopment project area. The proposed CC zone and associated Precise Plan
Modifying Standards would allow a project to be developed that is consistent with the
existing Transit Focus Area (TFA) designation of the City's 2005 General Plan and
allows the orderly growth of this area of the city.
4.-\ '1~
CYRC Resolution No. 2007-
Page 9
The proposed mixed use project will not have a negative impact on the
surrounding neighborhood because it will be more compatible with higher density
residential and transit-oriented mixed-use development planned for the area. The
surrounding area includes commercial uses, a transit station, and medium to high
residential uses. The proposed higher density multi family and neighborhood serving
commercial uses is more appropriate for the area, as it transitions from existing multi and
single-family development to transit-oriented high density residential and mixed use type
development.
The design of the project provides a more urban and pedestrian-oriented character
by siting the buildings closer to the sidewalk, as compared with a suburban type of
development with larger front setbacks. Access to the Palomar trolley station would also
be enhanced with thirty two (32) of the units accessing directly onto Palomar Street and
the remaining units with clear pedestrian access and connections through the site to the
Palomar Trolley Station. Sidewalks along Palomar Street would be widened for a total
walkway width of 6.5 feet and separated from traffic along Palomar Street by a 5 foot
wide landscaped area (for a total 11.5 feet of parkway) to further promote a safe and
convenient pedestrian environment which is easily accessible to nearby commercial and
transit uses, and with the potential of improving the health and safety of persons residing
in the area.
3. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in this
code for such use.
The project complies with all regulations of the CC zone as modified by precise
plan standards adopted for the subject parcel based upon section 19.14.576 of the Chula
Vista Municipal Code.
4. That the granting of this conditional use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the
City or the adopted plan of any government agency.
The granting of the conditional use permit for the proposed project would not
adversely affect the City's General Plan. This site is designated mixed-use residential and
the project would provide a mixed-use development of residential and neighborhood
serving commercial uses. The precise plan standards for the project site would create a
more urban interface of the building with the street and sidewalk. This design promotes
pedestrian activity and enhanced access to the trolley station.
E. CONFORMANCE WITH CITY DESIGN MANUAL
The Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation does hereby find that the Project IS III
conformance with the City of Chula Vista Design Manual, Landscape Manual and the
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and hereby recommends that the City Council approve the
Design Review Permit (DRC-05-39), subject to conditions of Exhibit C.

F. SUBDIVISON MAP
The Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation does hereby recommend that the City
Council approve the Tentative Map (peS 07-01), subject to conditions of Exhibit D and based
upon the following findings.
A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.5 of the Subdivision Map Act, the City
Council finds that the Tentative Subdivision Map (pCS-07-01), as conditioned herein for
Bay Vista Walk, is in conformance with the City's General Plan, based on the following:
The Project has been designed and evaluated in accordance with the goals and
objectives of the General Plan, including the Transit Focus Area. The Rezone and Precise
Plan will allow the Project to be consistent with the goals and objectives of the General
Plan, and the Chula Vista Municipal Code. The General Plan Land Use and
Transportation (LUT) Policy 43.4 and 43.5 for this area state that development projects
should:
"Provide a mix of uses with a focus on retail and some office uses along Palomar
Street in the Mixed Use Transit Focus Area, with residential uses above and/or
behind the retail and offices uses. " and;
"Provide a mix of local-serving retail and office uses near the Palomar Trolley
Station and at the Gateways into the Palomar Gateway District. "
In order to implement the General Plan, the project proposes to rezone the site
from CT-P to the CC-P zone, which allows mixed-use projects through the issuance ofa
conditional use permit. For this area of the City, this is the only zoning district currently
available to implement the 2005 General Plan mixed-use designation. In relation to
residential density within the area, LUT Policy 43.6 of the General Plan states:
"In the Palomar Gateway District, residential densities within the Mixed Use
Transit Focus Area designation are intended to have a district-wide gross density
of 40 dwelling units per acre. "
The General Plan provides further guidance on design and landscaping for the
Palomar Gateway through LUT Policy 43.11 and 43.12, stating:
".. the improvement of Palomar Street as a gateway to the City. "
"Provide for safe, effective, and aesthetic pedestrian crossings and improvements to Palomar
Street and Industrial Boulevard"
The project proposes 154 units on 4.89 acres, which results in a density of 32
dwelling units per acre. This density is consistent with the City's General Plan policy for
the site and represents the maximum density permitted by the proposed CC zone. The
4-)11-
CVRC Resolution No. 2007-
Page 11
proposed residential density would provide an urban, pedestrian-oriented project design
that would complement the Palomar Trolley Station and be compatible with the
surrounding land uses.
B. Pursuant to Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act, the Council certifies that it
has considered the effect of this proposal on the housing needs of the region and has
balanced those needs against the public service needs of the residents of the City and the
available fiscal and environmental resources.
C. The configuration, orientation and topography of the site partially allows for the
optimum setting of lots for passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities as required
by Government Code Section 66473.1.
D. The site is physically suited for mixed use and residential development because
adequate level building sites can be provided and no sensitive biological resources exist on
the site. The Project design is consistent with the requirements of the General Plan Land
Use Element and the project conforms to all standards established by the City for such
project. Additionally, the site is physically suited for the proposed density of development
because all necessary public services are available to the project or will be available
commensurate with need.
E. The conditions herein imposed on the grant of permit or other entitlement herein
contained is approximately proportional both in nature and extend to the impact created by
the proposed development.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Chula Vista Redevelopment Corporation, has
made their recommendations, as herein contained, after considering all evidence and testimony
presented at its public meeting and is hereby incorporated into the record.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT a copy of this Resolution be transmitted to the
City Council.

BACKGROUND
In 1999, in order to increase the economic development potential for the land south of H
Street adjacent to the Marina in the Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area, the Chula Vista
Redevelopment Agency entered into a series of agreements with the Port of San Diego and
BF Goodrich to relocate and consolidate the campus of one of the City's largest employers.
This triggered a $47 million dollar private investment and provided for cleanup of soils
and groundwater contamination, demolition of underutilized industrial buildings and
improved traffic circulation.
On July 13, 1999, the City of Chula Vista ("City"), the Redevelopment Agency ("Agency"),
the San Diego Unified Port District ("Port") and Rohr, Incorporated (DBA BF Goodrich
Aerospace Aerostructures Group) entered into a Relocation Agreement. The purpose of
the agreement was to coordinate a series of land transfers intended to facilitate the
relocation and consolidation of Goodrich's operations to the north side of the proposed H
Street extension in the Bayfront Redevelopment Project Area. The result of these transfers
would be a reconfigured campus (the New Campus) generally bounded by Bay Boulevard
to the east, F Street/Lagoon Drive to the north, a realigned Marina Parkway to the west and
the proposed H Street extension to the south (See map, Attachment 1). The relocation and
consol idation of Goodrich faci I ities frees up land south of the proposed H Street extension
that will be essential to the redevelopment of the Bayfront in accordance with the
proposed Bayfront Master Plan.
One of the properties to be transferred was the privately-owned Rados Property, located at
the corner of Lagoon Drive and Bay Boulevard. The Agency acquired the property in
2003, with the intention of transferring ownership to BFG. Now the terms of the transfer
have been met and the Agency is prepared to transfer ownership to BFG, completing the
assemblage for the New Campus in accordance with the 1999 Relocation Agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT
In 1999, the Relocation Agreement contemplated the Agency receiving $3,000,000 as a
lump sum settlement from the Port as compensation in full for:
. The Agency-owned parcels ($1,271,952')
. The privately-owned Rados Property ($1,052,4092)
. Transfer Activities ($675,639)
1 Appraised value of Agency Parcels.
2 Appraised value of Rados Property.
(S-l"
Staff Report - Item No. --.L
October 25, 2007
Page 3
However, according to financial records, the Agency received $2,919,991 from the Port in
1999, as follows:
. On October 22, 1999, the Port deposited $972,400 (appraised amount for Rados
Property - less $80,000 for demolition costs) with the State Superior Court on
behalf of the Agency, which had entered into condemnation proceedings for the
Rados Property.
. On December 20, 1999, the Port deposited $1,271,952 to escrow (appraised
value of Agency Parcels).
. On December 30, 1999, the Port deposited an additional $675,639 into escrow
(transfer activity costs for Agency and Rados Property).
There is an outstanding amount of $80,009, for which there is no accounting or
explanation readily available. The Agency continues to pursue this remaining balance
with the Port.
To date, the Agency has expended $1,490,000 for the purchase of the Rados site (2003)
and approximately $156,000 for clearance and remediation of the site. Approval of the
Implementation Agreement will authorize the transfer of ownership of the property to BFG,
including payment for grading of the site in the amount of $254,000. So, the cost to
transfer is approximately $1,900,000, not including the cost to prepare transfer documents
and a title policy. No appropriation is needed to complete the transfer, as the funds have
already been budgeted.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project for compliance
with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and has determined that the
proposed project was adequately covered in the previously adopted Mitigated Negative
Declaration (MND) 15-99-21. Therefore, no further environmental review or
documentation is necessary.

Transfer of Property at 798 F Street in Chula Vista to Goodrich, Inc.
DISCUSSION
In 1999, the Port of San Diego and the City of Chula Vista initiated cooperative efforts to
facilitate Bayfront redevelopment and stimulate economic development through the
reconfiguration of land use and ownership patterns on the waterfront. Several agreements
were executed that year that laid the groundwork for a major redevelopment effort that
would relocate and consolidate the campus of one of the City's largest employers,
triggering substantial private investment and creation of an opportunity for new
development. Below is a chronological summary of the events and agreements leading up
to the current proposed Implementation Agreement.
Relocation Agreement
To accomplish the consolidation of Goodrich's operations, the 1999 Relocation
Agreement provided that Goodrich would transfer ownership of its land south of H
Street (37.58 acres) to the Port, and that Goodrich would vacate the land it leased
from the Port south of H Street. In return, the Port agreed to transfer various
properties north of H Street, totaling 26.51 acres to Goodrich. These parcels were
comprised of Port-owned property (16.66 acres), SDG&E property (7.41 acres) and
its best efforts to acquire and transfer the MTDB property (2.44 acres). Additionally,
the Port agreed to pay the Redevelopment Agency three million dollars for the
Agency's Bay Boulevard properties, the privately-owned Rados Property (to be
acquired by the Agency) and certain acquisition and transfer costs associated with
the two sites.' Prior to holding a public hearing for the purposes of evaluating the
merits of entering into an agreement which includes the sale, lease, or transfer of
Agency property, the Redevelopment Agency is procedurally required by state
redevelopment law (Health & Safety Code 933433) to prepare a "Summary Report"
that summarizes the cost of the transaction to the Agency.
'Section 3.6.1 of the Relocation Agreement describes the uses of the Port's three million dollar contribution
toward the financial obligations of the City and/or Agency (collectively, the "Transfer Activities"): (i)
acquisition of the Rados Property, (ij) transfer of the Agency and Rados Property to BFG, (iij) delivery of title
policies and endorsements for the Agency and Rados Property as reasonably requested by BFG under the
Agency-BFG Transfer Agreement, (iv) preparation of Phase I and Phase II environmental reports for the
Agency and Rados Property, and (v) clearing and grading of the Agency and Rados Property and
Environmental Costs related to Environmental Remediation Activities on the Agency and Rados Property
required pursuant to Sections 3.2.1 (b), 3.2.2(b) and 7.4.2 hereof.

33433 Report
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33433, the Agency prepared a
"Summary Report of Agency Property Disposition and Financial Assistance." The
hearing required by Health and Safety Code Section 33431 and 33433 was duly
called, noticed and held Uune 1999) in the manner required by law, and all
conditions precedent required by law to be performed were duly performed. The
Section 33433 Report was prepared, and filed in the Office of the City Clerk and in
the Office of the Executive Director, and made available for public inspection and
copying, all in the manner required by law.
Transfer Agreement
On November 16, 1999, the Agency and BFGoodrich Aerospace Aerostructures
Group, entered into a second agreement, entitled the Agency-BFG Transfer
Agreement ("Transfer Agreement"). The purpose of this agreement was to
implement the elements of the Relocation Agreement that dealt directly with the
Agency and Goodrich - specifically, the transfer of the Agency Property' and the
acquisition and transfer of the Rados Property' to Goodrich.
Development Agreement
On December 30, 1999, the City, the Redevelopment Agency and Goodrich
entered into a Development Agreement. The Agreement helped eliminate the
uncertainty in planning for BFG, allowing them the opportunity to master plan the
property per the existing rules, regulations, and policies of the City and Agency. It
also provided the City with some assurances that BFG would undergo a master
planning process for site development, and would cooperate with other
development proposals on adjacent Bayfront properties.
Implementation Agreement
The Agency conveyed the Bay Boulevard properties to Goodrich in December
1999 and subsequently acquired the Rados property in March of 2003. The
conditions required by the Transfer Agreement have been met, except for the
grading of the lot. Pursuant to Section 3.2.2.b of the Relocation Agreement, it was
agreed that in lieu of the actual grading, the Agency would pay Goodrich the
estimated cost of needed work. The cost to grade is estimated at $254,000, and the
proposed Implementation Agreement provides for payment of that amount to
Goodrich.

BACKGROUND
On August 29, 2007, Galaxy Commercial Holding, LLC ("Galaxy") submitted to the
Community Development Department a Statement of Qualifications ("SOQ") and
conceptual development proposal for the development of several properties located in the
City's E Street Visitor Transit Focus Area ("TFA"). This particular location is one of three
TFAs in the City designated by the 2005 General Plan Update and 2007 Urban Core
Specific Plan, allowing the greatest densities and heights in the City. The proposed ENA
properties consist of two existing hotel/motel sites that comprise 2.44 acres (106,189
square feet) of land located immediately adjacent to the E Street Trolley Station (vicinity
map attached as Attachment #1). Galaxy is currently under contract to purchase the
subject properties.
Galaxy is seeking an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement ("ENA") with the CVRC to:
. Assist Galaxy in the scoping of City development requirements (e.g., processes,
procedures, fees, schedule).
. Engage in forums for early public input on development concepts, including the
Redevelopment Advisory Committee ("RAC") and CVRe.
. Study additional development opportunities on adjacent properties, including land
for parks and affordable housing.
Based on Galaxy's qualifications and the anticipated project benefits, staff is
recommending that the CVRC enter into an ENA with Galaxy (Attachment #2) to facilitate
the development of the subject properties. A brief overview of Galaxy's conceptual
development proposal and project benefits are provided below.

The following discussion provides a more detailed description of:
. Developer qualifications
. Development activity in the E Street Visitor TFA / UC-15 Subdistrict
. Galaxy's Conceptual Development Proposal
. Project Benefits and Challenges
. ENA Schedule of Activities
Developer Qualifications
Galaxy possesses extensive experience developing urban products in Southern California.
Most notable is a recent project named VUE which is nearing completion in San Pedro,
California. Old Town San Pedro shares many characteristics with Chula Vista's Urban
Core. It is a historic port community in the City of Los Angeles that has long been located
in a redevelopment project area, but has never generated enough market confidence to
c5 .1-1
Staff Report - Item No. 5.1
Page 4
attract new development. Recognizing a rare
opportunity to take advantage of San Pedro's harbor
views of Los Angeles County's South Bay, Galaxy
pursued the purchase and assembly of multiple parcels
in the Old Town area to facilitate the development of
VUE, a 16-story, 318-unit, $175 million high-rise
condominium project with 1800 views of the South
Bay (255 West 5th Street, San Pedro, CA;
http://www.vue-Iiving.com). Galaxy is seeking the
same opportunity in Chula Vista - to build a first-class
condominium project capturing 1800 views of San
Diego County's South Bay.
.
.
t~
&
!
Galaxy designed, processed, and began construction , ..'.'
of Vue without any formal assistance or participation
from the Community Redevelopment Agency of the
City of Los Angeles ("CRAlLA"). The Agency did,
however, playa critical role in the entitlement process
because of CRAlLA's jurisdiction over certain permit
approvals. Staff was able to get in contact with the
CRNLA's primary staff person who worked on the Vue
project, Susan Totaro, who provided a very favorable reference about CRAlLA's experience
working with the Galaxy development team, citing in particular their ability to work with
the local community on design refinements. (See Attachment #4 for a copy of an e-mail
from CRNLA's Susan Totaro.) Staff is proposing that the CYRC and staff playa similar role
with Galaxy through the CVRe's ENA and Urban Core Development Permit ("UCDP")
processes.
Other notable projects that Galaxy has developed or is currently processing are described
below. A copy of Galaxy's Statement of Qualifications is also included as Attachment #5.
. BIG: 11-story, contemporary high-rise apartment building on
Wilshire Boulevard in Beverly Hills. 37-unit luxury apartment
project involving the adaptive reuse of an 11-story office building.
Currently the only for-lease high-rise in Beverly Hills.

. 1300 Redlands Blvd: Currently in the predevelopment
process for a 100,000 square-foot office building in
Redlands, CA. Three-story concrete and glass building
that will incorporate an office park atmosphere, trees
and landscaping, and ample parking.

. Figueroa Plaza: Raffi Cohen, President of Galaxy, is best known for
this groundbreaking development in downtown Los Angeles.
660,000 square feet of twin office towers, with 1.2 million square
feet of underground parking, at First and Figueroa Streets.
Development Activity in the E Street Visitor TFA / UC-15 Subdistrict
In addition to the subject site, other real estate/development activity in the E Street Visitor
TFA / UC-15 Subdistrict is creating a unique opportunity for the City and CVRC to work
with private investors to "master plan" transit-oriented development around the E Street
Trolley Station. The Intergulf-Lennar development team has an ongoing ENA with the
CVRe/Agency for the City's former corporate yard located on the northwest corner of F
Street and Woodlawn Avenue, immediately south of the Galaxy site. Intergulf/Lennar is
proposing multiple high-rise towers, consistent with the UC-15 Subdistrict's 6.0 FAR and
210' height limit. (See Attachment #6 for a copy of the UC-15 zoning sheet.) Immediately
north of the corporate yard and west of the
Galaxy site is the E Street Trolley Station. The
San Diego Metropolitan Transit System ("MTS")
has also expressed openness during previous
discussions about the possible redevelopment
of the E Street Trolley Station as a mixed-use
facility that includes rental housing.
Conceptual Development Proposal
In addition to the three parcels that are the
primary subject of this ENA, Galaxy has made
offers on two additional sites adjacent to the
subject parcels: (1) Aunt Emma's Restaurant,
and (2) the office building located immediately
south of The Traveler Inn. Galaxy's conceptual
development proposal envisions a phased
development strategy in accordance with the UCSP. This would include mid-rise and
high-rise buildings with retail along E Street (possibly wrapping Woodlawn Avenue),
screened podium parking, and paseos to provide pedestrian access to the E Street Trolley
Station through the project. Galaxy is estimating that, under ideal conditions, it could
build up to 780 units on the site over time, in phased increments of two to three hundred
units.

Staff Report -Item No. 5.1

Project Benefits & Challenges
In addition to creating needed density on the west to jumpstart the Urban Core Specific
Plan, Galaxy's development concept has the potential to generate significant public
benefits:
. Tax Increment (T.I.): As proposed, the project has the
potential to ultimately annually generate $3,152,000 (Gross
T.I.) of new local revenues for affordable housing, schools, and
other redevelopment activities, including infrastructure
improvements. (See "Fiscal Impact" Section on Page 7.)
. Affordable Housing: The City's existing Inclusionary
Housing Policy requires that 10% of new residential
construction be affordable to low- and moderate- ,"' c ~I
income residents. Due to land availability on the . ~'~
west, however, the majority of Chula Vista's new ~. ,II / "
affordable housing has historically been built on the . .
east. To create new quality housing stock on the west _, _' '.
at affordable prices and rents, the City's Housing Element and the Redevelopment
Agency's Five Year Implementation Plan both prioritize the creation of new
affordable housing on the west, particularly within redevelopment project areas.
The proposed ENA project could make great strides toward creating a more
balanced housing stock on the west. As envisioned, this project could produce an
inclusionary requirement of up to 80 affordable units at eventual buildout.
.
Parkland: Similar to affordable housing, limited
land availability on the west presents significant
challenges to the physical acquisition and
development of parkland, even with the collection
of significant park fees. Based on the location of the
ENA site, however, Galaxy's project has the
potential to create land for new parks, including the
possible beginning of the UCSP's linear park vision along Woodlawn Avenue.
. E Street Trolley Crossing: The location of the ENA site
also presents some challenges to development,
particularly with respect to the E Street Trolley
crossing. These challenges, however, could ultimately
become important opportunities for creating greater
public benefit. The E Street Trolley crossing has been
identified for several years now by SANDAG as a
priority location for a split-grade station (either above- or below-ground).
5.\-"
Staff Report - Item No. 5.1
Page 7
Undergrounding the Trolley line at this intersection would significantly lessen
traffic levels at the crossing and create greater connectivity between the Urban Core
and Bayfront. Funding, however, is and will continue to be a major factor in the
timing of the grade separation. Net Tax Increment that the Redevelopment Agency
could generate from the Galaxy project could be leveraged to issue bonds to help
fund and prioritize the grade separation.
ENA Schedule of Activities
A key element of the ENA is the Schedule of Activities (Attachment #7). The proposed
Galaxy schedule differs from most schedules that the CVRC has reviewed in the past,
because of: (1) the possibility that no Redevelopment Agency assistance will be needed to
build the project; and (2) the potential magnitude and importance of this catalyst project
for the Urban Core. The proposed ENA schedule includes two instances of early CVRC
technical input on the project. These early working sessions with the CVRC will allow for
more informal dialogue between the Board and developer to openly discuss and exchange
ideas about the physical and financial opportunities and challenges of the project.
DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the CVRC Directors and has found no property
holdings within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this
action.

A. Real Estate Commissions
CYRC shall not be liable for any real estate commission or brokerage fees which may
arise herefrom. Developer agrees to indemnity and hold the CYRC, Agency and City harmless

or other agreement for development of the Property, and the implementation of this Agreement,
except as otherwise expressly provided herein or expressly agreed in writing.
C. Confidentiality
CYRC and Developer recognize that disclosures made by Developer pursuant to this
Agreement may contain sensitive information and that the disclosure of such information to third
parties could impose commercially unreasonable and/or uncompetitive burdens on Developer
and, may correspondingly, diminish the value or fiscal benefit that may accrue to the CYRC
upon the redevelopment of the Property by the Developer, if a future OP A or other agreement for
development of the Property is entered into by the Parties. Developer acknowledges and agrees
that CYRC is a public entity with a responsibility and, in many cases, legal obligation to conduct
its business in a manner open and available to the public. Accordingly, any information
provided by Developer to CYRC with respect to the Property, the Project or Developer may be
disclosed to the public either purposely, inadvertently, or as a result of a public demand or order.
With respect to any information provided that Developer reasonably deems and identifies in
writing as proprietary and confidential in nature, CYRC agrees to exercise its best efforts to keep
such information confidential. In addition, if CYRC determines that it is required under
applicable law to disclose any information identified by Developer as proprietary and
confidential in nature, CYRC shall notity Developer as least three business days before
disclosure of such information which will provide Developer the opportunity to seek a protective
order preventing such disclosure.
D. Assignment
1. CYRC would not have entered into this Agreement but for Developer's unique
qualifications and experience. Therefore, Developer's rights and obligations under this
Agreement may not be assigned without the prior written approval of CYRC in its sole
discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the prior written approval of the CEO,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld, Developer may assign its rights hereunder to a new
entity formed by the Developer for purposes of developing the Project. Such new entity may
include additional parties provided that the Developer retains responsibility for fulfilling its
~.\-l~
-6.
obligations hereunder and Developer retains management control and authority over the entity
and the Project.
2. Upon the assignment sale or transfer, whether voluntary or involuntary, of more
than fifty percent (50%) of the membership, ownership, management or control of the Developer
(other than such changes occasioned by the death or incapacity of any individual) that has not
been approved by the CYRC, the CYRC may terminate this Agreement, without liability, by
sending written notice of termination to Developer.
E. Nondiscrimination
Developer shall not discriminate against nor segregate any person, or group of persons on
account of race, color, creed, religion, sex, marital status, disability, national origin or ancestry in
undertaking its obligations under this Agreement.
7. RETENTION OF DISCRETION
A. By its execution of this Agreement, CYRC is not committing itself or agreeing to
undertake any activity requiring the subsequent exercise of discretion by CYRC, Agency, or
City, or any department thereof including, but not limited to, the approval and execution of an
OPA or other agreement for development of the Property; the proposal, amendment, or approval
of any land use regulation governing the Property; the provision of financial assistance for the
development of any public or private interest in real property; the authorization or obligation to
use the Agency's eminent domain authority; or, any other such activity.
B. Developer understands and agrees that the CYRC, Agency, and City, in their
respective legislative roles, reserve the right to exercise their discretion as to all matters which
the CYRC, Agency, and City are by law entitled or required to exercise such discretion,
including but not limited to, entitlements or permits for the development of the Property and
adoption of any amendments to policy documents (including the General Plan, Urban Core
Specific Plan, and Redevelopment Plans). In addition, Developer understands and agrees that
the entitlements and any other documents shall be subject to and brought to the CYRC, Agency,
or City, as appropriate, for consideration in accordance with applicable legal requirements,
including laws related to notice, public hearings, due process, and the California Environmental
Quality Act.
C. Developer acknowledges that any plans processed for the Property will be based
upon the current General Plan and Zoning Code of the City. Additionally, Developer
acknowledges that the City is still in the process of completing certain portions of the Urban
Core Specific Plan ("UCSP"). Developer acknowledges and agrees that the City may consider a
number of development alternatives for the Property for consideration by the City Council as
part of City's UCSP process. Developer further acknowledges that the City is currently in
litigation over the UCSP and that said litigation could affect the Property and the Developer's
interests therein. Developer agrees and acknowledges that the processing, adoption and/or
amendment of the General Plan or the UCSP by the City is not a consideration in its proceeding
with this Agreement or the proposed development project and Developer may need to request
t5',\ - \ 5'
-7 -
amendments to the General Plan or UCSP. The General Plan and UCSP are legislative actions
and this agreement does not limit or in any way interfere with the City Council's ability to
exercise their discretionary authority as it relates to these or any other legislative actions.
Developer acknowledges and agrees that the exercise of the City's legislative discretion, whether
by the City Council's own actions or pursuant to or as a result of any litigation shall not form the
basis of breach of this Agreement, express or implied, or any other claims against the City.
D. This Agreement does not constitute a disposition of property or exercise of
control over property by CVRC and does not require a public hearing. CVRC execution of this
Agreement is merely an agreement to enter into a period of exclusive negotiations according to
the terms hereof, reserving final discretion and approval by Agency as to any proposed OP A or
other agreement for development of the Property and all proceedings and decisions in connection
therewith. The parties understand that Agency has the complete and unfettered discretion to
reject an OPA or other agreement for development of the Property without explanation or cause.
The risk of loss of all processing, design and developmental costs incurred by the Developer
prior to OPA or other agreement for development of the Property approval shall be absorbed
entirely by Developer. As to any matter which the CVRC and/or Agency may be required to
exercise its unfettered discretion in advancing the Project to completion, nothing herein shall
obligate the CVRC and/or Agency to exercise its discretion in any particular manner, and any
exercise of discretion reserved hereunder or required by law, shall not be deemed to constitute a
breach of CVRC duties under this agreement.
8. TERMINATION RIGHTS
Notwithstanding the Initial or Extended Negotiating Periods hereinabove set forth, either
party may terminate this Agreement if the other party has materially defaulted in its obligations
herein set forth, and the terminating party has provided defaulting party with written notification
of such determination, and the defaulting party has refused to cure same. The written
notification shall set forth the nature of the actions required to cure such default if curable.
Defaulting party shall have 30 days from the date of the written notification to cure such default.
If such default is not cured within the 30 days, the termination shall be deemed effective. Any
failure or delay by a party in asserting any of its rights or remedies as to any default shall not
operate as a waiver of any default or of any rights or remedies associated with a default. Each
party shall also have the right to terminate this Agreement in the event that CVRC or Developer
determines that: (a) the Project is infeasible or not in the public interest; or (b) the parties reach
an impasse in their negotiation of the OPA, or other agreement for development of the Property,
which cannot be resolved after good faith efforts.

To: Ken Lee
Subject: RE: Vue I Galaxy Commercial Holding, LLC
Hi Ken,
I'd be happy to give you a favorable recommendation on Galaxy Holdings project, the VUE.
Please be advised the CRA/LA did not enter into any agreement with Galaxy for the VUE and
has not provided any financial assistance In Sept. 2004, the CRA approved a discretionary
land use action to permit residential (318 units) on land designated commercial in the Beacon
Street Redevelopment Project Area. Galaxy was also successful in obtaining an amendment
to the San Pedro Community Plan from the City Planning Dept. that was essential in building
housing on the site. A portion of his 5th Street property had been zoned industrial which did
not penmit housing. The entitlement process for this project took at least 18 months,
Galaxy, through Mr. Cohen, himself and his development team have been cordial and
responsive to the San Pedro community's suggestions to improve the design of the building to
make it more pedestrian friendly. The Galaxy Team and landscape architects had met with the
Pacific Corridor Community Advisory Committee and Design Advisory Panel on a number of
occasions to address the blank walls of the five story parking structure along Centre Street and
ways to activate 5th Street, since the development offered no retail. The VUE is indeed a
signature project and has created a lot of excitement in San Pedro. We commend Mr. Cohen
for his tenacity, his belief in San Pedro and for building a first class high-rise on a site that
had been empty for THIRTEEN YEARS with an obsolete ten story office structure.
While the CRA had no agreement with Galaxy, the eRA and community's conditions were
adhered to because, the CRA is a signatory on the building's construction permit.
Please call me, if you have any questions.

5. Conceptual Development:
Site Description
Located in the Transit Focus Area of the Urban Core Specific Plan, the proposed
development area is situated in an ideal location for the creation of residential
densities to support and reinvigorate the E Street Trolley. Development at this
location will also present important opportUnities to create enhanced linkages and
pedestrian access to and from the adjacent E Street Businesses, Harborview and

Jefferson Avenue (Assessor' Parcel Numbers, 567-031-2600, 567-031-1700, 567-
031-2800, 567-031-3900, 567-032-0600, 567-032-0800) and totals approximately
9.97 acres (434,932 square feet). Exhibit "c" provides a site map of the area.
Existing Uses
Bayfront Plaza is a local neighborhood shopping center that was built in the
I 960s. The Best Western and the Travelers Inn are small to mid-sized motels also
built in the J 960s. E Street is a major link from Interstate 5 to the Village District
and is characterized by a mixture of small to mid-sized motels, restaurants, small
businesses and multifamily uses. The site is located in the Urban Core Specific
Plan's E Street Trolley (Transit Focus Area) UC 15 Subdistrict, which allows
FARs between 4.0 and 6.0, heights between 45' and 210', primary land use
maximums of 90% residential, 1-10% Retail, 10% office and J -I 0% hospitality.
